Entry
EC 4.4.1.10                 Enzyme                                 
Name
cysteine lyase;
cysteine (sulfite) lyase;
L-cysteine hydrogen-sulfide-lyase (adding sulfite)
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-sulfur lyases;
Carbon-sulfur lyases (only sub-subclass identified to date)
Sysname
L-cysteine hydrogen-sulfide-lyase (adding sulfite; L-cysteate-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
L-cysteine + sulfite = L-cysteate + hydrogen sulfide [RN:R00901]
Reaction(KEGG)
R00901
Substrate
L-cysteine [CPD:C00097];
