- Gene Symbol:
- CBS
Homo sapiens - Full name:
- cystathionine-beta-synthase
- Synonyms:
- HIP4, cystathionine beta-synthase, beta-thionase, methylcysteine synthase, serine sulfhydrase
- Genomic Location:
- Chr 21: 43346370-43369490
- Description:
-
The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency ...
