Arabidopsis	At5g04620	Catalyzes the decarboxylative condensation of pimeloyl-[acyl- carrier protein] and L-alanine to produce 8-amino-7-oxononanoate (AON), [acyl-carrier protein], and carbon dioxide.	Biotin synthesis in plants. The first committed step of the pathway is catalyzed by a cytosolic 7-keto-8-aminopelargonic acid synthase.; 2005; DOI: 10.1104/pp.105.070144; PMID: 16299174; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16299174/ | Peroxisomes are involved in biotin biosynthesis in Aspergillus and Arabidopsis.; 2011; DOI: 10.1074/jbc.m111.247338; PMID: 21730067; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21730067/ | Biotin deficiency causes spontaneous cell death and activation of defense signaling.; 2012; DOI: 10.1111/j.1365-313x.2011.04871.x; PMID: 22126457; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22126457/
