Cystathionine beta synthase deficiency and brain edema associated with methionine excess under betaine supplementation: Four new cases and a review of the evidence. [PDF]
CBS deficient individuals undergoing betaine supplementation without sufficient dietary methionine restriction can develop severe hypermethioninemia and brain edema. Brain edema has also been observed in individuals with severe hypermethioninemia without

Cystathionine beta synthase expression in mouse retina. [PDF]
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

Cystathionine beta-synthase promotes anoikis resistance and transcoelomic metastasis in ovarian cancer via SP1- ITGB1 regulation. [PDF]
Anoikis resistance is crucial for ovarian cancer (OvCa) transcoelomic metastasis, during which exfoliated OvCa cells survive as spheroids before invading the omentum.

Biogenesis of Hydrogen Sulfide and Thioethers by Cystathionine Beta-Synthase
Aims: The transsulfuration pathway enzymes cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine gamma-lyase are thought to be the major source of hydrogen sulfide (H2S). In this study, we assessed the role of CBS in H2S biogenesis.
