Hemoglobin, myoglobin and the cytochromes contain the heme structure as active site. The porphyrins are precursors of the heme molecules. They play an important role in the oxygen metabolism. The heme synthesis is located mainly in the erythrocyte cells. Glycin and succinyl-CoA are condensed to δ-aminolävulinic acid. Two molecules of δ-aminolävulinic are then condensed to porphobilinogen. The porphyrin ring is built up by four porphobilinogen molecules.
