2.5.1.48 |
Description |
Cystathionine gamma-synthase |
Alternative names |
O-succinylhomoserine (thiol)-lyase; Homoserine transsuccinylase.; Cystathionine synthase; MetB. |
Catalyzed reaction |
O-succinyl-L-homoserine + L-cysteine = cystathionine + succinate. |
Cofactor |
Pyridoxal-phosphate. |
Comments |
-!- Can also use hydrogen sulfide and methanethiol as substrates producing homocysteine and methionine respectively.
-!- In the absence of thiol, can also catalyse beta,gamma-elimination to form 2-oxobutanoate, succinate and ammonia.
The plant enzyme can also use O-phosphohomoserine as a substrate.
Formerly EC 4.2.99.9. |
