Porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) also known as Hydroxymethylbilane synthase, is the third enzyme in the heme biosynthesis pathways in mammals[1]. It catalyses the polymerization of four porphobilinogen molecules to yield hydroxymethylbilane, a pyrrole[2]. Porphobilinogen deaminases are able to form surprisingly stable enzyme-substrate complexes with up to four pyrrole substrates interacting with the active site, a feature unique to the group of enzymes[3]. Dipyrromethane, a cofactor unique to porphobilinogen deaminases, is thought to stabilize these interactions[2].
