  • Title: Effect of heme on the activity of chick embryo liver mitochondrial delta-aminolevulinate synthase.
    Author: Pirola BA, Srivastava G, Borthwick IA, Brooker JD, May BK, Elliott WH.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1984 Jan 30; 166(2):298-300. PubMed ID: 6692929.
    Abstract:
    We have examined the effect of heme on the activity of native delta-aminolevulinate synthase isolated from drug-induced chick embryo liver mitochondria. The enzyme was not inhibited by concentrations of heme up to 1 mM and this finding makes it improbable that heme acts physiologically to control mitochondrial delta-aminolevulinate synthase activity.
