Orphan date February 2009 In genetics and biochemistry , a repressor gene inhibits the activity of an operator gene . By inactivating the repressor, the operator gene becomes active again. This effect is called derepression . Derepression of ALA synthase One example is the effect of drugs on the activity of ALA synthase , an enzyme involved in heme synthesis. When inducing for example phenobarbital , griseofulvin or hydantoins , the activity of ALA synthase will rise. The cause is a production of cytochrome P450 production, induced by the drugs, consuming heme. When the amount of heme in the liver decreases, it no longer act as a repressor for its synthesis. On the contrary, ALA synthase increases which leads to an increase in heme production.

Most bacteria have a heme biosynthesis pathway, but nevertheless, since heme is a major source of iron an essential metal , microbes take up exogenous heme to retrieve iron. To grab heme, microbes extract it from host hemoproteins. This is achieved by two non ... heme from host hemoproteins. The second pathway involves microbial cell surface receptors that catch hemoproteins circulating in the vicinity of the cell surface. Both pathways lead to heme docking to cell surface receptors. In Gram negative bacteria, docked heme is transported through the outer membrane by an energy dependent process. In Gram positive bacteria, docked heme is transferred to membrane anchored heme binding lipoproteins. In all thus far described systems, heme is actively transported through the plasma membrane by an ATP hydrolysis powered ABC transporter. Heme is either degraded into biliverdin, CO and iron by heme oxygenases, or iron is retrieved from heme, keeping the tetrapyrrol ring intact by recently identified enzymes. As excess heme is toxic, heme uptake, efflux and degradation are usually highly regulated. In most cases, intracytoplasmic heme or iron released during heme degradation are cofactors along with transcriptional regulators.

Unreferenced date April 2009 A conjugated protein is a protein that functions in interaction with other chemical groups attached by covalent bond s or by weak interactions. Many proteins contain only amino acid s and no other chemical groups, and they are called simple proteins. However, other kind of proteins yield, on hydrolysis, some other chemical component in addition to amino acids and they are called conjugated proteins. The nonamino part of a conjugated protein is usually called its prosthetic group . Most prosthetic groups are formed from vitamins. Conjugated proteins are classified on the basis of the chemical nature of their prosthetic groups. Some examples of conjugated proteins are lipoprotein s, glycoprotein s, phosphoprotein s, hemoprotein s, flavoprotein s, metalloprotein s, phytochrome s, cytochrome s and opsin s. Haemoglobin contains the prosthetic group containing iron, which is the heme . It is with in the heme group that carries the oxygen molecule through the binding of the oxygen molecule to the iron ion Fe2 found in the heme group. Glycoproteins are generally the largest and most abundant group of conjugated proteins. They range from glycoproteins in cell surface membranes that constitute the glycocalyx , to important antibodies produced by leukocytes .
