Description

Background: Protoporphyrin IX is active as a photosensitizer and is a component of nitric oxide synthase for NOS generation.1, 2 It is a substrate for heme oxygenases affording cellular protection and producing biliverdin and CO, a secondary messenger in cells, and metallated (Fe) versions of heme is one of the most abundant and widely used metalloporphyrins in the biosphere 3,4
