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...

Heavy metals inhibited both porphyrin formation and porphobilinogen consumption, but known sulphydryl inactivating chemicals inhibit the former without modifying the latter.
