The role of ALA‐S and ALA‐D in regulating porphyrin biosynthesis in a normal and a HEM R+ mutant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Catabolite repression and derepression on δ‐aminolevulinate synthase (ALA‐S) and δ‐aminolevulinate dehydratase (ALA‐D) in a normal yeast strain, D27, and its derived D27/C6 (HEM R+) were investigated. ALA‐S and ALA‐D activities and intracellular ALA (I‐ALA) at different physiological states of the c...
