NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
FECH: Catalyzes the ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX. Defects in FECH are the cause of erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP). Porphyrias are inherited defects in the biosynthesis of heme, resulting in the accumulation and increased excretion of porphyrins or porphyrin precursors. They are classified as erythropoietic or hepatic, depending on whether the enzyme deficiency occurs in red blood cells or in the liver. EPP is a form of porphyria marked by excessive protoporphyrin in erythrocytes, plasma, liver and feces, and by widely varying photosensitive skin changes ranging from a burning or pruritic sensation to erythema, edema and wheals. Belongs to the ferrochelatase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Mouse Fech fech (Catalog #AAA2885842) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2885842 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse Fech. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Ferrochelatase, mitochondrial, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
