Porphyrin biosynthesis in Rhodopseudomonas palustris-XII. δ-aminolevulinate synthetase switch-off/on regulation

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

The high levels of δ-aminolevulinate synthetase (ALA-S) in Rhodopseudomonas palustris cells grown anaerobically in the light (Ph) decrease to those found in cells grown aerobically in the dark (A), when the former cultures were vigorously oxygenated; simultaneously bacteriochlorophyll (Bchl) synthes...
