Sirohydrochlorin (SHC) is a macrocyclic metabolic intermediate in the biosynthesis of corrin, precursor to the tetrapyrrole pigment and cofactor F430. It is a yellow compound. Its biosynthetic precursor is dihydrosirohydrochlorin, which in turn is derived from uroporphyrinogen III.[1] It is also the precursor to the siroheme, the prosthetic group in an sulfite reductase.
