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:11121422, PubMed:19556236, PubMed:7703255). 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 (PubMed:20055707). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side |
Tissue Location | Expressed at higher levels in renal cancer tissue than in normal tissue (at protein level) |

Background
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) or HSP32 is the inducible isoform of heme oxygenase which catalyzes the NADPH, O2 and cytochrome P450 reductase dependent oxidation of heme to carbon monoxide, iron and biliverdin that is immediately reduced to bilirubin. To date, three heme oxygenase isoforms HO-1, HO-2 and HO-3 have been identified.
