Erythropoietic protoporphyria

1 Dec 1994

Abstract excerpt

Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is an inherited inborn error of porphyrin metabolism caused by decreased activity of the enzyme ferrochelatase, the terminal enzyme of the haem biosynthetic pathway, which catalyses the insertion of iron into protoporphyrin to form haem. EPP is characterized clinically by photosensitivity to visible light commencing in childhood, and biochemically by elevated red cell...
