Porphyrin biosynthesis III. Porphyrin metabolism in experimental lead poisoning
Porphyrinogen and heme synthesis in whole blood, hemolysates, and supernatant of hemolysates from lead-poisoned rabbits and control rabbits were studied in vitro. [2-14C]Glycine, δ-aminolaevulic acid, δ-amino[4-14C]laevulic acid, porphobilinogen, [14C]uroporphyrinogen III, [14C]coproporphyrinogen II...
