Biochemical characterization of serine acetyltransferase and cysteine desulfhydrase from Leishmania major

The nucleotide sequence annotated as LmjF32.2640 encodes a cysteine desulfhydrase. The Leishmania major enzyme is closely related to bacterial cystathionine β lyases, however specifically catalyzes the breakdown of cysteine into pyruvate, NH3 and H2S. Cysteine metabolism exhibits atypical features i...
