ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.48

Accepted Name
cystathionine gamma-synthase.
Alternative Name(s)
cystathionine synthase.
cystathionine synthetase.
homoserine transsuccinylase.
O-succinylhomoserine (thiol)-lyase.
O-succinylhomoserine synthase.
O-succinylhomoserine synthetase.
O-succinyl-L-homoserine succinate-lyase (adding cysteine).
Reaction catalysed
L-cysteine + O-succinyl-L-homoserine <=> H(+) + L,L-cystathionine + succinate
Comment(s)
  • Also reacts with H2S and methanethiol as replacing agents, producing homocysteine and methionine, respectively.
  • In the absence of thiol, can also catalyze beta,gamma-elimination to form 2-oxobutanoate, succinate and ammonia.
  • Formerly EC 4.2.99.9.
