Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an inborn error caused due to inherited deficiency of porphobilinogen (PBG) deaminase leading to increased levels of aminolevulinic acid and PBG.

PORPHOBILINOGEN DEAMINASE deficiency alters vegetative and reproductive development and causes lesions in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
The Arabidopsis rugosa1 (rug1) mutant has irregularly shaped leaves and reduced growth. In the absence of pathogens, leaves of rug1 plants have spontaneous lesions reminiscent of those seen in lesion-mimic mutants; rug1 plants also express cytological ...

Abstract New methods for the synthesis of the aminomethyldipyrrolylmethane and the aminomethyl-tripyrrane, which are resulting from formal head to tail condensation of porphobilinogen are de scribed. Porphobilinogen was used as base material in these procedures.

Acute intermittent porphyria is an autosomal dominant inborn error characterized by decreased activity of porphobilinogen deaminase leading to increased levels of haem precursors, namely aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen.

Hemotórax espontáneo: una forma inusual de presentación de la porfiria intermitente aguda
Las porfirias son un grupo de alteraciones metabólicas de la síntesis del hem, de carácter hereditario. Son condiciones relativamente raras, de difícil diagnóstico, pero con una respuesta impresionante al tratamiento y con buen pronóstico, si se ...

Porphyria: What Is It and Who Should Be Evaluated?
The porphyrias are a group of rare metabolic disorders, inherited or acquired, along the heme biosynthetic pathway, which could manifest with neurovisceral and/or cutaneous symptoms, depending on the defective enzyme.

Renal failure affects the enzymatic activities of the three first steps in hepatic heme biosynthesis in the acute intermittent porphyria mouse. [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease is a long-term complication in acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). The pathophysiological significance of hepatic overproduction of the porphyrin precursors aminolevulinate acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG) in chronic kidney ...

Genomic differences between Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 and Fibrobacter intestinalis DR7, identified by suppression subtractive hybridization [PDF]
Fibrobacter is a highly cellulolytic genus commonly found in the rumen of ruminant animals and cecum of monogastric animals. In this study, suppression subtractive hybridization was used to identify the genes present in Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 but ...

A rare case of acute intermittent porphyria with ichthyosis vulgaris in a young boy
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) and ichthyosis vulgaris both are autosomal dominant disorders with incomplete penetrance caused by the deficiency of porphobilinogen deaminase enzyme and filaggrin protein, respectively.
