Pulse labelling studies in chick embryo livers show that hemin prevents the transfer of drug induced pre-delta-aminolevulinate synthase from the cytosol into the mitochondria, leading to an accumulation of precursor in the cytosol. No effect of hemin was observed on the transfer of pre-pyruvate carboxylase into mitochondria. These results eliminated a general toxic effect of hemin on mitochondrial import of proteins and are consistent with the view that hemin specifically inhibits the transfer of ALA synthase.
