Precursor to metabolite: Biotin to Biocytin
Biotin is converted to Biocytin by holocarboxylase synthetase.
The pair
- Biotin — Vitamin B7; carboxylase cofactor; supplements can skew lab immunoassays.
- Biocytin — Biotin bound to lysine; biotinidase recycles it into free biotin during protein breakdown.
