ENZYME entry: EC 2.8.1.7

Accepted Name
cysteine desulfurase
Alternative Name(s)
cysteine desulfurylase
Reaction catalysed
[sulfur carrier]-H + L-cysteine <=> [sulfur carrier]-SH + L-alanine
Comment(s)
  • The sulfur from free L-cysteine is first transferred to a cysteine residue in the active site, and then passed on to various other acceptors.
  • The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of iron-sulfur clusters, thio-nucleosides in tRNA, thiamine, biotin, lipoate and pyranopterin (molybdopterin).
  • In Azotobacter vinelandii, this sulfur provides the inorganic sulfide required for nitrogenous metallocluster formation.
