ID 2.6.1.105 DE lysine--8-amino-7-oxononanoate transaminase. AN DAPA aminotransferase. CA (8S)-8-amino-7-oxononanoate + L-lysine = (7R,8S)-7,8-diammoniononanoate + CA (S)-2-amino-6-oxohexanoate. CC -!- Participates in the pathway for biotin biosynthesis. CC -!- The enzyme from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis cannot use CC S-adenosyl-L-methionine as amino donor and catalyzes an alternative CC reaction for the conversion of 8-amino-7-oxononanoate to 7,8- CC diaminononanoate (cf. EC 2.6.1.62). CC -!- Formerly EC 2.6.1.n2. DR P53555, BIOK_BACSU ; //
