Gene Full Name :

Cystathionine gamma-lyase

Synonyms :

Cystathionine gamma-lyase; 4.4.1.1; Cysteine-protein sulfhydrase; Gamma-cystathionase; CTH;

Protein Name :

Cystathionine gamma-lyase

Molecular Weight :

44508 MW

Protein Function :

Catalyzes the last step in the trans-sulfuration pathway from methionine to cysteine. Has broad substrate specificity. Converts cystathionine to cysteine, ammonia and 2-oxobutanoate. Converts two cysteine molecules to lanthionine and hydrogen sulfide. Can also accept homocysteine as substrate. Specificity depends on the levels of the endogenous substrates. Generates the endogenous signaling molecule hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and so contributes to the regulation of blood pressure. Acts as a cysteine-protein sulfhydrase by mediating sulfhydration of target proteins: sulfhydration consists of converting -SH groups into -SSH on specific cysteine residues of target proteins such as GAPDH, PTPN1 and NF-kappa-B subunit RELA, thereby regulating their function.

Subcellular Localization :

Cytoplasm

Recommended Detection Systems :

Boster recommends Enhanced Chemiluminescent Kit with anti-Rabbit IgG (EK1002) for Western blot, and HRP Conjugated anti-Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit (SV0002-1) for IHC(P).

Background :

Cystathionine gamma-lyase (or cystathionase) is an enzyme which breaks down cystathionine into cysteine and alpha-ketobutyrate. The International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium mapped the CTH gene to chromosome 1. The CTH gene had earlier been assigned to chromosome 16 by study of somatic cell hybrids. It is demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is physiologically generated by CTH.
