Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes the 6-electron oxidation of protoporphyrinogen IX to form protoporphyrin IX; under anaerobic conditions uses menaquinone as an electron acceptor, under aerobic conditions uses ubiquinone as an electron acceptor.
Catalytic activity RHEA:65032: 3 a quinone + protoporphyrinogen IX = 3 a quinol + protoporphyrin IX
EC 1.3.5.3
RHEA:27409: 3 a menaquinone + protoporphyrinogen IX = 3 a menaquinol + protoporphyrin IX
EC 1.3.5.3
RHEA:63936: 3 a ubiquinone + protoporphyrinogen IX = 3 a ubiquinol + protoporphyrin IX
Cofactor FMN
Note: Binds 1 FMN non-covalently per subunit.
Pathway Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism; protoporphyrin-IX biosynthesis; protoporphyrin-IX from protoporphyrinogen-IX: step 1/1.
case not defined <Property:Membrane> or <Property:Membrane=1>
