Published in 2018 at "Journal of structural biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsb.2017.12.008

Abstract: Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), the key enzyme in the transsulfuration pathway, links methionine metabolism to the biosynthesis of cellular redox controlling molecules. CBS catalyzes the pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-dependent condensation of serine and homocysteine to form cystathionine, which is… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of agricultural and food chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.7b02391

Abstract: Cystathionine γ-synthase (MetB) condenses O-acetyl-l-homoserine (OAHS) or O-succinyl-l-homoserine (OSHS) with cysteine to produce cystathionine. To investigate the molecular mechanisms and substrate specificity of MetB from Corynebacterium glutamicum (CgMetB), we determined its crystal structure at 1.5… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-71469-x

Abstract: Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) catalyzes the condensation of serine and homocysteine to water and cystathionine, which is then hydrolyzed to cysteine, α-ketobutyrate and ammonia by cystathionine γ-lyase (CGL) in the reverse transsulfuration pathway. The protozoan parasite… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biology of Reproduction"

DOI: 10.1093/biolre/ioy207

Abstract: Abstract Endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a potent vasodilator and proangiogenic second messenger synthesized from L-cysteine by cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine γ -lyase (CTH). Estrogens are potent vasodilators that stimulate H2S biosynthesis in uterine… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Neuro-oncology"

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noz031

Abstract: BACKGROUND Codeletion of chromosome arms 1p and 19q (1p/19q codeletion) highly benefits diagnosis and prognosis in gliomas. In this study, we investigated the effect of 1p/19q codeletion on cancer cell metabolism and evaluated possible metabolic… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "AntiCancer Research"

DOI: 10.21873/anticanres.12621

Abstract: Background/Aim: In certain cancers, accumulation of cystathionine has been observed. The present study investigated the effect of cystathionine on astrocytoma (U373) cell proliferation, the activity of γ-cystathionase (CTH) and changes in thiols levels. Materials and… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms19051537

Abstract: Earlier, we reported that gestational ethanol (E) can dysregulate neuron glutathione (GSH) homeostasis partially via impairing the EAAC1-mediated inward transport of Cysteine (Cys) and this can affect fetal brain development. In this study, we investigated… read more here.
