| biotin |
is a member of the B complex; it was first isolated in 1935 from dried egg yolk, and its structure was established in 1942. Biotin is usually found attached to a lysine residue in certain enzymes, where it participates in reactions involving the transfer of carboxyl (-COOH) groups; one such reaction is essential for the synthesis of fatty acids.
