High-pressure polymorphism in L-cysteine: the crystal structures of L-cysteine-III and L-cysteine-IV.
The crystal structure of the orthorhombic phase of L-cysteine (hereafter L-cysteine-I) consists of chains of molecules linked via NH...O hydrogen bonds. The chains are linked into a layer by other NH...O hydrogen bonds, forming R4(4)(16) ring motifs. The layers are linked by further NH...O and disordered SH...S/SH...O interactions. The main effects of compression to 1.8 GPa are to contract void...
متن کاملHydrogen-Bonded Interactions in the Systems L-Cysteine - H2SeO3 and L-Cysteine -H2SeO4: A DFT Study
Using the density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory, the formation of hydrogen-bonded complexes of L-cysteine with selenious and selenic acids has been studied. In both cases of selenium-containing acids, the complexes occur preferably by cysteine carboxylic group, therewith the enthalpy of formation values consist from –19 to –21 kcal/mol, and free energy from –6...
متن کاملStudies of l-Cysteine Biosynthetic Enzymes in Phaseolus vulgaris L.
In higher plants the biosynthesis of l-cysteine from l-serine, acetylCoA, and sulfide requires serine transacetylase and O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase. The distribution of these enzymes in kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Red Kidney) seedlings was determined. Between one-third and two-thirds of the serine transacetylase activity was associated with mitochondria, whereas all of the O-acetyl...
متن کاملThe L-cysteine desulfhydrase of Escherichia coli.
The coenzyme function of pyridoxal-phosphate in cysteine desulfhydration and in the mechanistically similar serine and threonine dehydration (deamination) processes has been a subject of discussion in a number of recent publications (see, for example, Snell, 1952, and Braunstein and Shemyakin, 1953). A chemical model reaction has been proposed (Metzler and Snell, 1952). Evidence for pyridoxal-p...
متن کاملFree radical metabolites of L-cysteine oxidation.
The oxidation of L-cysteine by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of oxygen forms a thiyl free radical as demonstrated with the spin-trapping ESR technique. Reactions of this thiyl free radical result in oxygen consumption, which is inhibited by the spin trap 5,5'-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide. Cysteine sulfinic acid, a cysteine metabolite, is a poorer substrate for horseradish peroxidase th...
