Identification of a uroporphyrinogen III synthetase gene and characterization of its role in pearl sac formation in Hyriopsis cumingii
Uroporphyrinogen III synthetase (UROS) is an important enzyme involved in the structural formation of porphyrin, which is responsible for color intensity. A UROS homolog was isolated and characterized from the pearl mussel, Hyriopsis cumingii (HcUros). The HcUros cDNA was 858 bp in length with an op...
