However, 1 h after ingestion of 5 J. lg/kg of biotin, her plasma biotin concentration rose to 5650 pg/ml, as in similarly treated biotin-replete controls. Biotin clearance was also normal (34-4 4 ml/min/1’73 m2). The fraction of biotin excreted in her urine in the 24 h after the biotin dose was 50’8%, twice as high as the amount excreted by the controls and more than three times her previous maximum excretion (15%). Biotinidase activity in the patient’s serum was undetectable (table). The mother, who does not have clinical biotin deficiency, had 46% of mean normal biotinidase activity and a plasma biotin of 248 pg/ml, which is below normal. Dietary biotin exists primarily as biotinyl groups linked to the E-amino groups of lysine residues of proteins. 9 Biotinidase hydrolyses this bond, releasing free biotin. Biotinidase activity is widely distributed, particularly in liver, kidney, serum, and gut mucosa. 9 Although this enzyme’s primary site of action on dietary protein is not known, deficiency could impair ability to maintain normal body stores of free biotin, leading to a hypobiotinaemic state. Whether biotinidase is also involved in the absorption of free biotin is not known.The patient’s normal plasma biotin response to the ingestion of 5pg/kg of biotin when her tissues were replete with biotin, but her failure to respond when she was biotin deficient is probably caused by rapid entry of biotin into the depleted tissues.
