About ALAS1

Cytogenetic location: 3p21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:52,198,083-52,214,327 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 238 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Biased expression in adrenal (RPKM 297.6), liver (RPKM 180.6) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme which is catalyzes the rate-limiting step in heme (iron-protoporphyrin) biosynthesis. The enzyme encoded by this gene is the housekeeping enzyme; a separate gene encodes a form of the enzyme that is specific for erythroid tissue. The level of the mature encoded protein is regulated by heme: high levels of heme down-regulate the mature enzyme in mitochondria while low heme levels up-regulate. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 12. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]
