Abstract: The application of metabolic radiolabeling techniques to plant tetrapyrroles, i.e., chlorophyll and hemes, is complicated by the difficulty of obtaining sufficient quantities of radiolabeled aminolevulinic acid (ALA). ALA, the first committed intermediate in the tetrapyrrole… read more here.
