In enzymology, a biotin carboxylase (EC 6.3.4.14) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + biotin-carboxyl-carrier protein + CO2 ADP + phosphate + carboxybiotin-carboxyl-carrier protein

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, biotin-carboxyl-carrier protein, and CO2, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and carboxybiotin-carboxyl-carrier protein.

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming generic carbon-nitrogen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is biotin-carboxyl-carrier-protein:carbon-dioxide ligase (ADP-forming). This enzyme is also called biotin carboxylase (component of acetyl CoA carboxylase). This enzyme participates in fatty acid biosynthesis.

A C-terminal conserved domain within this enzyme contains most of the active site residues.[1]

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 5 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1BNC, 1DV1, 1DV2, 2GPS, and 2GPW.
