Pimeloyl-CoA

Pimeloyl-CoA is a key precursor compound in the biotin synthesis pathway, which can promote the de novo synthesis of biotin. Pimeloyl-CoA is mainly used in the study of microbial metabolic mechanisms, especially the analysis of biotin synthesis pathways and basic research on the biosynthesis of related antibiotics or vitamins[1][2].
