Ni2+
-
substrate inhibition occurs when assayed in the absence of metal ion-complexing buffer components
porphyrin
-
high porphyrin concentrations noticeably increase the extent of zinc inhibition
Cd2+
-
the crystallographic data indicate that the inhibition of ferrochelatase by Cd2+ occurs because the metallated product is poorly released from the enzyme and is not due to a selection mechanism that occurs prior to chelation

substrate inhibition occurs when assayed in the absence of metal ion-complexing buffer components

N-Methylprotoporphyrin
-
binds to wild-type ferrochelatase and P255R mutant via a two-step pathway with a kinetically significant intermediate, firstly formation of an initial complex, which subsequently is rearranged into a more stable complex, secondly slow conformational change of the inhibitor–protein complex
Zn2+
-
uncompetitive substrate inhibitor, zinc inhibition is enhanced by increasing porphyrin concentration, zinc inhibits by binding to an enzyme-product complex and is likely to be the second substrate in an ordered mechanism, this inhibition is not observed in the presence of higher concentrations of the detergent cholate, and it is likely that increasing detergent concentrations also increases KM for deuteroporphyrin Ix as substrate and so reduces the concentration of enzymeproduct species for the inhibitor to bind
Zn2+
-
substrate inhibition occurs when assayed in the absence of metal ion-complexing buffer components
additional information
-
the inhibitory metals Hg, Cd, and Mn all serve as substrates for the enzyme in that they are inserted into the porphyrin macrocycle. The crystallographic data indicate that the inhibition of ferrochelatase by these metals occurs because the metallated product is poorly released from the enzyme and is not due to a selection mechanism that occurs prior to chelation

conversion of mesoporphyrin is dependent on the expression of ferrochelatase, since control Balb/3T3 cells have much lower expression of ferrochelatase than the ferrochelatase transfectants

isoform FC1 shows highest expression in adult leaves, while isoform FC2 exhibits highest expression in juvenile leaves

-
M-TAT cell, when induced to undergo erythroid differentiation M-TAT cells convert more zinc mesoporphyrin than control cells, accompanied by an increase in hemoglobin-synthesizing cells
