Studies on Porphobilinogen-Deaminase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Porphobilinogen-deaminase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been isolated and partially purified 80- and 230-fold in the absence or presence of phenylmethylsulphonyl fluoride, re-spectively. Some properties of the isolated enzyme were studied. Porphyrin formation was linear with time and protein con...
