Hydroxymethylbilane (HMB), also known as preuroporphyrinogen, is a molecule involved in the metabolism of porphyrin. In the third step, it is generated by the enzyme porphobilinogen deaminase, and in the next step the enzyme uroporphyrinogen III synthase converts it into uroporphyrinogen III.

In general, defects of heme synthesis after formation of HMB lead to photosensitivity.

early mitochondrial:	D-Aminolevulinic acid
cytosolic:	Porphobilinogen Hydroxymethylbilane Uroporphyrinogen III Coproporphyrinogen III
late mitochondrial:	Protoporphyrinogen IX Protoporphyrin IX
