Namebiotin biosynthesis
TypePATHWAY
DescriptionBiotin is an essential cofactor for many carboxylation (addition of C02) reactions. This property reflects biosynthesis from pimeloyl-CoA. The source of pimeloyl-CoA may vary. BioF (EC 2.3.1.47, 8-amino-7-oxononanoate synthase, also called 7-keto-8-aminopelargonic acid synthetase) converts pimeloyl-CoA to 8-amino-7-oxononanoate. BioA (EC 2.6.1.62, adenosylmethionine-8-amino-7-oxononanoate aminotransferase) converts the product to 7,8-diaminononanoate, from which BioD (EC 6.3.3.3, dethiobiotin synthase) makes dethiobiotin. BioB (EC 2.8.1.6, biotin synthase) then makes biotin itself. Enzymes such as BioH involved in pimeloyl-CoA biosynthesis typically receive biotin-related annotations but may also appear in genomes in which biotin is not synthesized and pimeloyl-CoA is used for something else.
