Architecture and regulation of filamentous human cystathionine beta-synthase [PDF]
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is an essential metabolic enzyme across all domains of life for the production of glutathione, cysteine, and hydrogen sulfide. Appended to the conserved catalytic domain of human CBS is a regulatory domain that modulates

Oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction in cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency [PDF]
Cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD) is the most prevalent inherited disorder of homocysteine metabolism in the transsulphuration pathway. Research have suggested oxidative stress and inflammation as candidate pathogenic mechanisms in CBSD. This

Sulfurtransferases and Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Expression in Different Human Leukemia Cell Lines [PDF]
The studies concerned the expression of sulfurtransferases and cystathionine beta-synthase in six human leukemia cell lines: B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-B-ALL (REH cells), T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-T-ALL (DND-41 and MOLT-4 cells), acute

Recurrent dislocation of binocular crystal lenses in a patient with cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency [PDF]
Background Ectopia lentis is the common ocular manifestation of homocystinuria resulting from cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) deficiency which has a high risk of thromboembolic complications.

A proactive genotype-to-patient-phenotype map for cystathionine beta-synthase [PDF]
Background For the majority of rare clinical missense variants, pathogenicity status cannot currently be classified. Classical homocystinuria, characterized by elevated homocysteine in plasma and urine, is caused by variants in the cystathionine beta ...

Deciphering pathophysiological mechanisms underlying cystathionine beta-synthase-deficient homocystinuria using targeted metabolomics, liver proteomics, sphingolipidomics and analysis of mitochondrial function [PDF]
Background: Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS)-deficient homocystinuria (HCU) is an inherited disorder of sulfur amino acid metabolism with varying severity and organ complications, and a limited knowledge about underlying pathophysiological processes.

Pathogenic Homocystinuria-Associated T236N Mutation Dramatically Alters the Biochemical Properties of Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Protein [PDF]
Background: Cystathione beta-synthase (CBS) T236N is a novel mutation associated with pyridoxine non-responsiveness, which presents a significant difficulty in the medical treatment of homocystinuria. Reported severe phenotypes in homocystinuria patients

Identification and Functional Analysis of Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Gene Mutations in Chinese Families with Classical Homocystinuria [PDF]
Background: Homocystinuria caused by cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) deficiency is the most common congenital disorder related to sulfur amino acid metabolism, manifested by neurological, vascular, and connective tissue involvement.
