Uroporphyrinogen III synthase EC 4.2.1.75 is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of the cyclic tetrapyrrole compound porphyrin. It is involved in the conversion of hydroxymethyl bilane into uroporphyrinogen III. This enzyme catalyses the inversion of the final pyrrole unit (ring D) of the linear tetrapyrrole molecule linking it to the first pyrrole unit (ring A) thereby generating a large macrocyclic structure uroporphyrinogen III.
