IUBMB Comments
The enzyme catalyses the asymmetric condensation and cyclization of two 5-aminolevulinate molecules, which is the first common step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrrole pigments such as porphyrin, chlorophyll, vitamin B12, siroheme, phycobilin, and cofactor F430. The enzyme is widespread, being essential in organisms that carry out respiration, photosynthesis, or methanogenesis. The enzymes from most organisms utilize metal ions (Zn2+, Mg2+, K+, and Na+) as cofactors that reside at multiple sites, including the active site and allosteric sites. Enzymes from archaea, yeast, and metazoa (including human) contain Zn2+ at the active site. In humans, the enzyme is a primary target for the environmental toxin Pb. The enzymes from some organisms utilize a dynamic equilibrium between architecturally distinct multimeric assemblies as a means for allosteric regulation.

reaction mechanism involving asymmetric addition and cyclization of two 5-aminolevulinate molecules, modeling, detailed overview. The active site consists of several invariant residues, including two lysyl residues Lys210 and Lys263 that bind the two substrate moieties as Schiff bases, active site structure and substrate binding, overview. The intersubstrate C-N bond is formed first have a rate-limiting barrier that is lower than those in which the intersubstrate C-C bond is formed first
