Heme synthesis in Crithidia deanei: Influence of the endosymbiote
1. 1. The activity of the following enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of porphyrins was determined in endosymbiote-free and endosymbiote-containing Crithidia deanei grown in a chemically defined medium: succinyl Coenzyme A synthetase (Suc.CoA-S), 5-aminolevulinate synthetase (ALA-S), 4,5-dioxoval...
