Application

Biocytin is used as a substrate to study the specificity and kinetics of biotinidase(s), to measure biotinidase deficiency and as a model compound to study various uptake mechanisms of cells and tissues. Biocytin has been used to label neurons, medium spiny neurons and optic nerves.[1][2][3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Biocytin is an adduct of lysine and biotin.[4] It is hydrolyzed by biotinidase, which acts on peptide-incorporated biotin or free biotin.[5] Biocytin acts as a coenzyme.[1]
