Kinetic and molecular parameters of human hepatic porphobilinogen deaminase

A basal level of human liver porphobilinogen deaminase of 3.66 units/g wet weight was found in adult tissue. Activity in neonatal liver was at least three fold higher. Physico-chemical studies revealed that the enzyme has the approximate form of a symmetrical molecule and exhibits hyperbolic kinetic...
