Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes the conversion of heme O to heme A by two successive hydroxylations of the methyl group at C8. The first hydroxylation forms heme I, the second hydroxylation results in an unstable dihydroxymethyl group, which spontaneously dehydrates, resulting in the formyl group of heme A.
Catalytic activity RHEA:63388: 2 A + Fe(II)-heme o + H2O = 2 AH2 + Fe(II)-heme a
EC 1.17.99.9
PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right (RHEA:63389)
Cofactor heme b
Pathway Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism; heme A biosynthesis; heme A from heme O: step 1/1.
Subunit Interacts with CtaB.
Subcellular location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Similarity Belongs to the COX15/CtaA family. Type 1 subfamily.
