α-Helix in Cystathionine β-Synthase Enzyme Acts as Electron Reservoir [PDF]
The modulation of electron density at the Pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP) catalytic center, due to charge transfer across the α-Helix-PLP interface, is the determining factor for the enzymatic activities in the human Cystathionine β-Synthase (hCBS) enzyme ...

Cystathionine β-synthase is involved in cysteine biosynthesis and H2S generation in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) catalyzes the condensation of serine and homocysteine to water and cystathionine, which is then hydrolyzed to cysteine, alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia by cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) in the reverse transsulfuration ...

Colorimetric coupled enzyme assay for cystathionine β-synthase [PDF]
A colorimetric coupled enzyme assay for the determination of cystathionine β-synthase activity is described. The method exploits cystathionine γ-lyase as an ancillary enzyme capable of transforming cystathionine, produced by cystathionine β-synthase ...

Oligomeric status of human cystathionine beta-synthase modulates AdoMet binding
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) plays a key role in the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids. CBS is a multidomain tetrameric enzymeallosterically activated by S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet).

Human polycomb 2 protein is a SUMO E3 ligase and alleviates substrate-induced inhibition of cystathionine beta-synthase sumoylation. [PDF]
Human cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) catalyzes the first irreversible step in the transsulfuration pathway and commits homocysteine to the synthesis of cysteine. Mutations in CBS are the most common cause of severe hereditary hyperhomocysteinemia.
