Abstract

Erythropoietic protoporphyria(EPP) is an autosome recessive inheritance disease which caused by ferrochelatase(FC) gene defection.A decrease in FC activity leads to lower heme contents and excessive accumulation of protoporphyrin and precurosor.The typical characteristic and detection method of EPP,research progress on FC gene were reviewed in the article.
