Porphyrin biosynthesis. X. Porphyrinogen carboxy-lyase from avian erythrocytes futher properties

Several properties of porphyrinogen carboxy-lyase from normal chicken erythrocytes were studied. 1. 1. The utilization of the substrate uroporphyrinogen (8-COOH), and the formation of intermediate products (porphyrinogens of 7-, 6- and 5-COOH) and the final product coproporphyrinogen (4-COOH) were i...
