KEGG   ENZYME: 4.4.1.35
Entry
EC 4.4.1.35                 Enzyme                                 
Name
L-cystine beta-lyase;
CORI3 (gene name)
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-sulfur lyases;
Carbon-sulfur lyases (only sub-subclass identified to date)
Sysname
L-cystine thiocysteine-lyase (deaminating; pyruvate-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
L-cystine + H2O = L-thiocysteine + pyruvate + NH3 (overall reaction) [RN:R02408];
(1a) L-cystine = L-thiocysteine + 2-aminoprop-2-enoate;
(1b) 2-aminoprop-2-enoate = 2-iminopropanoate (spontaneous);
(1c) 2-iminopropanoate + H2O = pyruvate + NH3 (spontaneous)
Reaction(KEGG)
R02408
Substrate
L-cystine [CPD:C00491];
H2O [CPD:C00001];
2-aminoprop-2-enoate [CPD:C02218];
2-iminopropanoate [CPD:C20904]
Product
L-thiocysteine [CPD:C01962];
pyruvate [CPD:C00022];
NH3 [CPD:C00014];
2-aminoprop-2-enoate [CPD:C02218];
2-iminopropanoate [CPD:C20904]
Comment
A pyridoxal 5'-phosphate protein. The enzyme cleaves a carbon-sulfur bond, releasing L-thiocysteine and an unstable enamine product that tautomerizes to an imine form, which undergoes a hydrolytic deamination to form pyruvate and ammonia. The latter reaction, which can occur spontaneously, can also be catalysed by EC 3.5.99.10, 2-iminobutanoate/2-iminopropanoate deaminase. The enzyme from Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli) does not act on cysteine or cystathionine.
