Popis:	Hepatic ALA synthetase activity was determined on biopsy material from 12 patients with symptomatic porphyria. Five patients had values at least 1.5 times greater than the highest normal value whilst the remaining seven had values within or slightly above the highest normal value. No correlation was observed between ALA synthetase activity and urinary or stool porphyrin excretion. The metabolic significance of this finding is discussed.
