Immobilization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cystathionine gamma-lyase and application of the product to cystathionine synthesis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cystathionine gamma-lyase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was immobilized to aminohexyl-Sepharose through the cofactor pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and was characterized with respect to its cystathionine gamma-synthase activity. The immobilized product was so stable that it repeatedly catalyzed as many as five cycles of the reaction without losing activity.

Mucosal acidification increases hydrogen sulfide release through up-regulating gene and protein expressions of cystathionine gamma-lyase in the rat gastric mucosa
Objective(s): This study was performed to investigate the effects of mucosal acidification on mRNA expression and protein synthesis of cystathionine gamma lyase (CSE), cystathionine beta synthase (CBS), and mucosal release of H2S in gastric mucosa in rats. Materials and Methods:Thirty-two rats were randomly assigned into 4 groups (8 in each), including: the control group, HCl (10 mM) treated g...
متن کاملDuodenal acidification stimulates gastric H2S release through upregulating mRNA expression of cystathionine gamma lyase
Introduction: It has been reported the alkaline response of pancreas to duodenal acidification is partly mediated through duodenal release of H2S, but till now the effect of duodenal acidification on gastric H2S release has not been investigated. Therefore, the present study designed to evaluate the effects of duodenal acidification on gastric H2S release and level of mRNA expression of cys...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of a new mutation conferring cysteine auxotrophy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: updating of the sulfur metabolism pathway.
We have identified a mutation in a gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, STR1, that leads to a strict nutritional requirement for cysteine. The str1-1 mutation decreases to an undetectable level the cystathionine gamma-lyase activity. This enzyme catalyzes one of the two reactions involved in the transsulfuration pathway that yields cysteine from homocysteine with the intermediary formation of cyst...
متن کاملCystathionine gamma-lyase activity in the cephamycin C producer Streptomyces lactamdurans.
Extracts of the cephamycin C producer S. lactamdurans were found to possess cystathionine gamma-lyase activity (E.C. 4.4.1.1). This represents the first demonstration of this enzyme of the reverse transsulfuration pathway in a prokaryotic organism. A likely involvement of reverse transsulfuration in antibiotic synthesis is indicated by the fact that propargylglycine, a mechanism-based inhibitor...
متن کاملA yeast with unusual sulphur amino acid metabolism.
A yeast strain highly resistant to propargylglycine (an inhibitor of cystathionine gamma-lyase) was isolated from air. It was partially characterized, but it has not been identified with any known yeast species. Its sulphur amino acid metabolism differed from that of other fungi by the lack of the reverse transsulphuration pathway from methionine to cysteine, as no activity of cystathionine bet...
