Sequence and structure of the rat housekeeping PBG-D isoform
Porphobilinogen deaminase (PBG-D), a key enzyme in the tetrapyrrole biosynthetic pathway, is encoded by a single gene containing two different promoters. The upstream promoter, found in all cell types, initiates the transcription of the housekeeping PBG-D isoform, whereas the downstream one is eryth...
