Deciphering a unique biotin scavenging pathway with redundant genes in the probiotic bacterium Lactococcus lactis

Biotin protein ligase (BPL) is widespread in the three domains of the life. The paradigm BPL is the Escherichia coli BirA protein, which also functions as a repressor for the biotin biosynthesis pathway. Here we report that Lactococcus lactis possesses two different orthologues of birA (birA1(_LL) a...
