The effect of carbon source and oxygen tension on catalase and peroxidase levels and on the intermediates of the biosynthesis of the prosthetic group of both enzymes has been studied. Oxygen produces an increase of both enzymatic activities, even in presence of glucose. On the other hand it seems probable that glucose does not have a direct inhibitory effect on the biosynthesis of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphyrins.
