Porphyrin biosynthesis II. Phyriaporphyrinogen III, a normal intermediate in the biosynthesis of protoporphyrin 9

Sumario: | In the present paper we report experimental data, indicating that phyriaporphyrinogen III, the porphyrinogen of the porphyrin which was originally called "208" porphyrin, is a normal intermediate in protoporphyrin-9 biosynthesis. Similar results were obtained with the pseudouroporphyrinogen. Additional results have confirmed the scheme and suggest a stepwise decarboxylation in the metabolic pathway leading to the biosynthesis of protoporphyrin 9. © 1964. |
