1. δ-Aminolaevulate synthetase was detected in liver and kidney mitochondria prepared from normal rats. 2. The administration of allylisopropylacetamide induced an increase in δ-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 δ-aminolaevulate synthetase was truly of cytosol origin and did not arise from disrupted mitochondria. The kidney cytosol enzyme was inhibited by 50% by 50μm-protohaem. 3. δ-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.

Chromatin (chromosomal nucleoprotein) from mammalian colls is used as a template for the synthesis of RNA which is characterized and compared with other RNA by RNA-DNA hybridization. It is found to be transcribed from a restricted set of sequences and cannot be distinguished from natural RNA from the same organ as the chromatin. In contrast, it is different from RNA from other organs. Hence, DNA is masked in an organ-specific way in vivo and the masking is preserved on isolation. When cell division is induced in mouse liver and kidney a very early event is a change in masking in chromatin. This precedes changes in RNA populations; both precede DNA synthesis. Chromatin can be accurately reconstructed from DNA, histones and non-histone proteins. Experiments using this system indicate that histones non-specifically mask DNA; non-histone proteins are essential to reverse masking in a specific way.
