biotin biosynthesis, the sulfuur insertion into dethiobiotin should involve a thiol as intermediate. The three possible thiols have been synthesized and their biological activity was evaluated: the primary thiol 10 labeled with [ 35 S] or [ 34 S] or with deuterium was transformed into biotin by resting cells of Bacillus sphaericus without loss of the label. Hence, it is a possible intermediate. Interestingly
