Biological function summary
Heme Oxygenase 1 serves important protective functions in the body. It is not part of a larger complex but its products such as carbon monoxide and biliverdin have their own biological activities. Carbon monoxide produced by HO-1 has antiflammatory properties and can modulate apoptotic pathways. Biliverdin is reduced to bilirubin which acts as an antioxidant. The enzyme therefore directly influences cellular stress responses and maintains cellular homeostasis through these processes.
Pathways
Heme Oxygenase 1 is integrally involved in oxidative stress response and heme metabolism. It participates in the cellular response to oxidative damage by reducing oxidative stress and promoting cytoprotection. Through its heme degradation activity it is connected with the synthesis of biologically active molecules like bilirubin and carbon monoxide. Heme Oxygenase 1 activity is related to other proteins in oxidative stress pathways such as Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) which regulates its expression and globins which are sources of heme for HO-1 activity.

General info
Function
Heme oxygenase 1. Catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of heme at the alpha-methene bridge carbon, released as carbon monoxide (CO), to generate biliverdin IXalpha, while releasing the central heme iron chelate as ferrous iron (PubMed : 1575508, PubMed : 1935972, PubMed : 3865203). Affords protection against programmed cell death and this cytoprotective effect relies on its ability to catabolize free heme and prevent it from sensitizing cells to undergo apoptosis (By similarity).. Heme oxygenase 1 soluble form. Catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of heme at the alpha-methene bridge carbon, released as carbon monoxide (CO), to generate biliverdin IXalpha, while releasing the central heme iron chelate as ferrous iron.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the heme oxygenase family.
Post-translational modifications
A soluble form arises by proteolytic removal of the membrane anchor.
