Biotin uptake in biotin regulatory mutant of Escherichia coli

J Bacteriol. 1973 Oct;116(1):494-6. doi: 10.1128/jb.116.1.494-496.1973.

Abstract

A transport system for biotin in Escherichia coli is regulated by biotin and is not affected by the mutation (bioR) that causes the constitutive synthesis of the bio operon enzymes.
