Summary
Enables several functions, including amine binding activity; hydroxymethylbilane synthase activity; and uroporphyrinogen-III synthase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to dexamethasone stimulus; cellular response to lead ion; and response to estradiol. Located in several cellular components, including axon; cytosol; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Colocalizes with condensed chromosome. Biomarker of bilirubin metabolic disorder and liver carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute intermittent porphyria and sickle cell anemia. Orthologous to human HMBS (hydroxymethylbilane synthase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
