One-carbon cycle alterations induced by Dyrk1a dosage

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2014
Hyperhomocysteinemia due to cystathionine beta synthase deficiency confers diverse clinical manifestations. It is characterized by elevated plasma homocysteine levels, a common amino acid metabolized by remethylation to methionine or transsulfuration to ...

Ocular manifestations of homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency: A rare case report with genetic analysis

open access: yesTNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2020
Microspherophakia is a developmental lens anomaly characterized by increased anteroposterior diameter and reduced equatorial diameter, which predisposes to secondary glaucoma. A 12-year-old boy presented with diminution of vision.

CBS domains form energy-sensing modules whose binding of adenosine ligands is disrupted by disease mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
CBS domains are defined as sequence motifs that occur in several different proteins in all kingdoms of life. Although thought to be regulatory, their exact functions have been unknown.

Sex-specific dysregulation of cysteine oxidation and the methionine and folate cycles in female cystathionine gamma-lyase null mice: a serendipitous model of the methylfolate trap

open access: yesBiology Open, 2015
In addition to its role in the endogenous synthesis of cysteine, cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) is a major physiological source of the vasorelaxant hydrogen sulfide.

satmut_utils: a simulation and variant calling package for multiplexed assays of variant effect

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2023
The impact of millions of individual genetic variants on molecular phenotypes in coding sequences remains unknown. Multiplexed assays of variant effect (MAVEs) are scalable methods to annotate relevant variants, but existing software lacks ...

Genetic studies of the cystathionine beta‐synthase gene and myelomeningocele [PDF]

open access: yesBirth Defects Research Part A: Clinical and Molecular Teratology, 2011
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 ...

Memantine Protects From Exacerbation of Ischemic Stroke and Blood Brain Barrier Disruption in Mild But Not Severe Hyperhomocysteinemia

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for ischemic stroke; however, a targeted treatment strategy is lacking partly because of limited understanding of the causal role of homocysteine in cerebrovascular pathogenesis.

α-Helix in Cystathionine β-Synthase Enzyme Acts as Electron Reservoir [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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]

open access: yes, 2020
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 ...
