Cystathionine beta synthase expression in mouse retina. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose: Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), a key enzyme in the transsulfuration metabolic pathway, converts homocysteine to cystathionine, which is converted to cysteine required for the synthesis of major retinal antioxidant glutathione (GSH).

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.

H2S and homocysteine control a novel feedback regulation of cystathionine beta synthase and cystathionine gamma lyase in cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a cardioprotective gas, is endogenously produced from homocysteine by cystathionine beta synthase (CBS) and cystathionine gamma lyase (CSE) enzymes.

Homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) deficiency in Russia: Molecular and clinical characterization [PDF]
We present the results of the 45-year clinical observation of 27 Russian homocystinuria patients. We made a mutation analysis of the CBS gene for thirteen patients from eleven unrelated genealogies.

Structural basis for substrate activation and regulation by cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) domains in cystathionine β-synthase [PDF]
The catalytic potential for H 2 S biogenesis and homocysteine clearance converge at the active site of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme. CBS catalyzes β-replacement reactions of either serine or cysteine by homocysteine to give cystathionine and water or H 2

Architecture and regulation of filamentous human cystathionine beta-synthase
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is an essential metabolic enzyme across all domains of life involved in the production of glutathione, cysteine, and hydrogen sulphide1–4. Human CBS appends to its conserved catalytic domain a regulatory domain that modulates activity by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) and promotes oligomerization5–12, however the ...

Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency. [PDF]
AbstractCystathionine beta‐synthase (CBS) deficiency is a rare inherited disorder in the methionine catabolic pathway, in which the impaired synthesis of cystathionine leads to accumulation of homocysteine. Patients can present to many different specialists and diagnosis is often delayed.

Genetic studies of the cystathionine beta-synthase gene and myelomeningocele. [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUND: Among infants born with spina bifida, the most common defect is myelomeningocele (MM). The prevention of MM by maternal periconceptional folic acid (FA) supplementation has been studied extensively. The protective effect provided by FA suggests that the genes involved in folate metabolism, such as cystathionine beta‐synthase (CBS ...
