1. delta-Aminolaevulate synthetase was detected in liver and kidney mitochondria prepared from normal rats. 2. The administration of allylisopropylacetamide induced an increase in delta-aminolaevulate synthetase in both liver and kidney mitochondria and the enzyme also appeared in the cytosol fraction of both tissues. Comparison with the distribution of glutamate dehydrogenase indicated that this soluble kidney delta-aminolaevulate synthetase was truly of cytosol origin and did not arise from disrupted mitochondria. The kidney cytosol enzyme was inhibited by 50% by 50mum-protohaem. 3. delta-Aminolaevulate synthetase could not be detected in mitochondria or cytosol from heart or brain from normal or porphyric rats. 4. The administration of allylisopropylacetamide caused little or no increase in ferrochelatase or cytochrome content of liver, kidney, heart or brain mitochondria.

Intramitochondrial loci for delta-aminolaevulate synthetase and ferrochelatase, the initial and final enzymes in haem synthesis, have been found in rat liver. Two different methods of fractionation were applied to mitochondria: (a) sonication and density-gradient centrifugation; (b) treatment with digitonin and differential centrifugation. Similar results were obtained with each technique. delta-Aminolaevulate synthetase is distributed similarly to two known matrix enzymes, malate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase. Ferrochelatase is firmly bound to the the inner mitochondrial membrane. These results are considered in terms of the regulation of haem synthesis and in relation to mitochondrial biogenesis.

2-Isopropyl-6-methyl-4-S-pyrimidinyl diethyl thiophosphate (isodiazinon) has been synthesized by an unambiguous route. Rats treated with isodiazinon over a 100-day period show decreased levels of liver ferrochelatase. Rats treated with diazinon and isodiazinon in combination over the same period show a more marked decrease in liver ferrochelatase activity as well as a decrease in the activity of coproporphyrinogen oxidase. Treatment of rats with stabilised diazinon over the same period is not associated with a decrease in the activity of either enzyme. Neither diazinon nor isodiazinon causes a decrease in the activity of glutamate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase or kynurenine hydroxylase, suggesting that the effect is specific to the porphyrin biosynthesis pathway and not due to mitochondrial damage.
