Intermolecular nitrogen transfer in the enzymic conversion of glutamate to delta-aminolevulinic acid by extracts of Chlorella vulgaris

delta-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), the universal biosynthetic precursor of tetrapyrrole pigments, is synthesized from glutamate in plants, algae, and many bacteria via a three-step process that begins with activation by ligation of glutamate to tRNA (Glu), followed by reduction to glutamate-1-semialde...
