CATH Clusters

Superfamily Type I PLP-dependent aspartate aminotransferase-like (Major domain)
Functional Family Cystathionine gamma-synthase

Enzyme Information

2.5.1.48
Cystathionine gamma-synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt P00935
O(4)-succinyl-L-homoserine + L-cysteine = L-cystathionine + succinate.
-!- Also reacts with H(2)S and methanethiol as replacing agents, producing homocysteine and methionine, respectively. -!- In the absence of thiol, can also catalyze beta,gamma-elimination to form 2-oxobutanoate, succinate and ammonia. -!- Formerly EC 4.2.99.9.
