DescriptionL-Cystathionine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as l-cysteine-s-conjugates. L-cysteine-S-conjugates are compounds containing L-cysteine where the thio-group is conjugated. L-Cystathionine is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). L-Cystathionine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within yeast, L-cystathionine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, L-cystathionine can be biosynthesized from homocysteine and L-serine through its interaction with the enzyme cystathionine beta-synthase. In addition, L-cystathionine can be converted into ammonium, L-cysteine, and 2-ketobutyric acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme cystathionine gamma-lyase. In yeast, L-cystathionine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the sulfur metabolism pathway. L-Cystathionine is a potentially toxic compound.
