sce:BIO3
Genes: 15
SGD Description7,8-diamino-pelargonic acid aminotransferase (DAPA); catalyzes the second step in the biotin biosynthesis pathway; BIO3 is in a cluster of 3 genes (BIO3, BIO4, and BIO5) that mediate biotin synthesis; BIO3 and BIO4 were acquired by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from bacteria
