Rat harderian gland porphobilinogen deaminase: Characterization studies and regulatory action of protoporphyrin IX
Properties of purified porphobilinogen deaminase (PBG-D; EC 4.3.1.8) from rat harderian gland are here presented. The enzyme behaves as a monomer of M(r) 38 ± 2 kDa and is optimally active at pH 8.0-8.2. Its activation energy, determined by an Arrhenius plot, is 76.1 kJ/mol. Initial velocity studies...

Properties of purified porphobilinogen deaminase (PBG-D; EC 4.3.1.8) from rat harderian gland are here presented. The enzyme behaves as a monomer of M(r) 38 ± 2 kDa and is optimally active at pH 8.0-8.2. Its activation energy, determined by an Arrhenius plot, is 76.1 kJ/mol. Initial velocity studies showed a linear progress curve for uroporphyringen I formation and a hyperbolic dependence of the initial rate on substrate concentration, indicating the existence of a sequential displacement mechanism. Apparent kinetic constants, K(m) and V(m), calculated at 37°C and pH 8.0 were 1.1 μM and 170 pmol/min mg, respectively.
