1. The importance of the early depletion of liver haem in the production of porphyria is discussed and further supporting evidence is presented from experiments with tryptophan pyrrolase, under conditions of exacerbation of experimental porphyria by therapeutic and other agents. 2. In addition to the early depletion of pyrrolase haem by porphyrogens, a further depletion is produced when rats are given a porphyrogen plus an analogue or one of 19 drugs known to exacerbate the human disease. 3. Non-exacerbators of human porphyrias do not cause a further early depletion of pyrrolase haem and it is suggested that this system may be used as a screening test for possible exacerbation of the disease by new and existing drugs. 4. A similar further early depletion of haem is produced by combined administration of lead acetate plus phenobarbitone, thus suggesting that the depletion is a more general phenomenon in experimental porphyria. 5. The relationship between tryptophan pyrrolase and the regulatory free haem is discussed. It is suggested that pyrrolase may play an important role in the regulation of haem biosynthesis.
