NCBI Summary for BTD
The protein encoded by this gene functions to recycle protein-bound biotin by cleaving biocytin (biotin-epsilon-lysine), a normal product of carboxylase degradation, resulting in regeneration of free biotin. The encoded protein has also been shown to have biotinyl transferase activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with biotinidase deficiency. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
UniProt Comments for BTD
BTD: Catalytic release of biotin from biocytin, the product of biotin-dependent carboxylases degradation. Defects in BTD are the cause of biotinidase deficiency (BTD deficiency); also called late-onset multiple carboxylase deficiency. BTD deficiency is a juvenile form of multiple carboxylase deficiency, an autosomal recessive disorder of biotin metabolism, characterized by ketoacidosis, hyperammonemia, excretion of abnormal organic acid metabolites, and dermatitis. BTD deficiency is characterized by seizures, hypotonia, skin rash, alopecia, ataxia, hearing loss, and optic atrophy. If untreated, symptoms usually become progressively worse, and coma and death may occur. Belongs to the CN hydrolase family. BTD/VNN subfamily.

Research Articles on BTD
1. 48 novel alterations in the biotinidase gene have been identified; correlating the individual's serum enzymatic activity with genotype, were able to determine the effect of the novel alteration on enzyme activity and, thereby, determine its likelihood of being pathogenic in 44 of these individuals
