Biotinylation is catalysed through a two-step reaction where biotin is first activated to biotinyl-5′-AMP in an ATP dependent manner. The biotin is then transferred onto the ε-amino group of a specific target lysine residue. The reaction mechanism is related to that of amino acyl-tRNA synthetases and lipoyl ligases where the reaction proceeds through the formation of an adenylated intermediate, suggesting a common ancestral relationship <ref>pmid 18442489</ref> .
