Studies on the active centre of rat liver porphyrinogen carboxylyase in vivo effect of hexachlorobenzene

1. 1. Porphyrinogen carboxylyase from the liver of normal and hexachlorobenzene porphyric rats was subjeced to chemical modification using photo-oxidation with methylene blue, diethylpyrocarbonate, butane-2,3-dione, and phenylglyoxal. 2. 2. All of these chemicals inactivated the enzyme from both sou...
