| 1 | BACKGROUND: Acute intermittent porphyria is a hereditary error of porphyrin metabolism in which the main metabolic defect is caused by a decrease in porphobilinogen deaminase activity. | Porphyrins | hydroxymethylbilane synthase | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | METHODS: Screening for porphobilinogen deaminase activity was carried out by fluorometric measurement of porphyrins synthesized during 1 h in blood and the measurement of delta-aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen in urine. | Porphyrins | hydroxymethylbilane synthase | Homo sapiens |
