5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) deficiency causes impaired glucose tolerance and insulin resistance coincident with an attenuation of mitochondrial function in aged mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
In vertebrates, the initial step in heme biosynthesis is the production of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) by ALA synthase (ALAS). ALA formation is believed to be the rate-limiting step for cellular heme production.

Point mutations in the Murine Fah gene : animal models for the human genetic disorder hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT1) is a severe autosomal recessive metabolic disease, associated with point mutations in the human fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) gene that cause disruption of tyrosine catabolism.

Newborn screening for inborn errors of metabolism and endocrinopathies: an update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Newborn screening for inborn errors of metabolism and endocrinopathies has expanded during the last two decades, mainly owing to the introduction of new technologies such as tandem mass spectrometry and DNA analysis.

Multi-photon fluorescence-lifetime imaging of a genetically-encoded heme sensor [PDF]

open access: yes
Genetically-encoded fluorescence-based sensors have emerged as an essential tool for measuring the abundance of heme, revealing its trafficking pathways, and probing its signalling and regulatory role in cells.

Haem Biosynthesis in Isolated Human Erythroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Hepatic haem biosynthesis has been well characterised. The first enzyme of the haem biosynthetic pathway, 5-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) synthase, is rate-limiting and under negative feedback control by haem.

Tyrosinemia type 1: A case report [PDF]

open access: yes
Tyrosinemia Type 1 is a rare inherited metabolic disorder attributable to a deficiency of enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase. It hasan autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance.
