| cystathionine | <chemical> Chemical name: L-Homocysteine, S-(2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)-, (R)- (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| cystathionine beta-lyase | <enzyme> An enzyme catalyzing the hydrolysis of l-cystathionine to pyruvate, l-homocysteine, and NH3. See: cystathionine gamma-lyase. Synonym: beta-cystathionase, cystine lyase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cystathionine beta-synthase | <enzyme> A multifunctional pyridoxal phosphate enzyme. In the second stage of cysteine biosynthesis it catalyses the reaction of homocysteine with serine to form cystathionine with the elimination of water. Chemical name: L-Serine hydro-lyase (adding homocysteine) Registry number: EC 4.2.1.22 (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystathionine gamma-lyase | <enzyme> A multifunctional pyridoxal phosphate enzyme. In the final step in the biosynthesis of cysteine it catalyses the cleavage of cystathionine to yield cysteine, ammonia, and 2-ketobutyrate. Chemical name: L-Cystathionine cysteine-lyase (deaminating) Registry number: EC 4.4.1.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystathionine gamma-synthase | o-succinylhomoserine (thiol)-lyase |
| homocysteine cystathionine gamma-synthase | <enzyme> Homocysteine and cystein yield cystathionine and h2s Registry number: EC 4.4.- Synonym: hccg-s (26 Jun 1999) |
