Abstract excerpt
Biotin carboxylase catalyzes the ATP-dependent carboxylation of biotin and is one component of the multienzyme complex acetyl-CoA carboxylase that catalyzes the first committed step in fatty acid synthesis in all organisms. In Escherichia coli, biotin carboxylase exists as a homodimer where each subunit contains a complete active site. In a previous study (Janiyani, K., Bordelon, T., Waldrop, G.L., Cronan Jr.,...
