Synonyms

ASB

Description

Aminolevulinate, delta-, synthase 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The product of this gene specifies an erythroid-specific mitochondrially located enzyme. The encoded protein catalyzes the first step in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene cause X-linked pyridoxine-responsive sideroblastic anemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
