Metabolite Identification
Common NameUroporphyrin III
DescriptionUroporphyrin III belongs to the class of organic compounds known as porphyrins. Porphyrins are compounds containing a fundamental skeleton of four pyrrole nuclei united through the alpha-positions by four methine groups to form a macrocyclic structure. Uroporphyrin III is possibly soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Uroporphyrin III exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. In cattle, uroporphyrin iii is involved in the metabolic pathway called the porphyrin metabolism pathway. Uroporphyrin III is a potentially toxic compound.
