malfunction
-
mutation of cysM causes increased sensitivity of Staphylococcus (S.) aureus to tellurite (15fold), hydrogen peroxide (45fold), acid (30fold after 4h at pH 2.0), and diamide (but not methyl viologen) and also significantly reduces the ability to recover from starvation in amino acid- or phosphate-limiting conditions. A cysM knockout mutant grows poorly in cysteine-limiting conditions
malfunction
-
transgenic Ipomoea aquatica plants, which simultaneously express two genes encoding serine acetyltransferase and cysteine synthase are created. Transgenic plants are shown to rapidly grow and to accumulate sulfate at a high level. Upon hydroponical cultivation in the presence of 200 mM cadmium for 7 days, two transgenic lines (SR1 and SR2) accumulate 2- to 4fold higher levels of cysteine and glutathione than the wild type control plants. When plantlets are exposed to 100 mM cadmium for 30 days, wild type and transgenic SR2 plantlets die, whereas transgenic SR1 exhibit a 1.7fold increase in total biomass in comparison with the initial weight at day-0 of cadmium treatment
malfunction
-
GmOASTL4 gene is overexpressed in tobacco. Transgenic plants show markedly increased accumulation of transcripts and higher cysteine content compared with the wild-type. Upon exposure to cadmium stress, OASTL activity and cysteine levels increase significantly in transgenic plants. Cadmium accumulation and the activity of both superoxide dismutase and catalase enzymes are enhanced in transformants

knockout mutants demonstrate a reduction in size and show paleness, but penetrance of the growth phenotype depend on the light regime. The cs26 mutant plants also show reductions in chlorophyll content and photosynthetic activity as well as elevated glutathione levels. cs26 mutant leaves are not able to properly detoxify reactive oxygen species, which accumulate to high levels under long-day growth conditions. The transcriptional profile of the cs26 mutant reveal that the mutation has a pleiotropic effect on many cellular and metabolic processes

lack of a functional isozyme OASTL-A1 results in enhanced disease susceptibility against infection with virulent and non-virulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 strains. Reduction of the OASTL activity of the old3-1 protein in vitro causes autonecrosis in specific Arabidopsis accessions, association of an effector triggered-like immune response and metabolic disorder with with auto-necrosis in old3 mutants. A negative epistatic interaction with the old3-1 mutation is not linked to reduced cysteine biosynthesis. Mutations in O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase regulate innate immune responses and disease susceptibility

In contrast, the presence of at least one functional OAS-TL isoform is essential in the male gametophyte. Only the absence of both isozymes OAS-TL A and OAS-TL C results in a decreased incorporation of sulfur and the carbon/nitrogen backbone into thiols, which also causes lower thiol steady-state levels.

malfunction
cysl-2 mutant phenotype, overview. The cysl-2 mutant has a reduced rate of enzymatic H2S synthesis from the added substrates L-cysteine and is marked by a decline in reproductive output compared to wild-type worms. Body area and length are significantly lower in cysl-2 compared to age-matched wild type worms, and GYY4137 treatment effectively rescues this phenotype. Lifespan is reduced in cysl-2 compared to wild-type and the addition of GYY4137 reverses this effect and increases the median survival of cysl-2

biosynthesis of cysteine is one of the fundamental processes in plants providing the reduced sulfur for cell metabolism. It is accomplished by the sequential action of two enzymes, serine acetyltransferase and O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase (OAS-TL). Together they constitute the hetero-oligomeric cysteine synthase (CS) complex through specific protein-protein interactions influencing the rate of cysteine production. The enzyme activity and level of thiols are not influenced by PEP4 expression. Increased serine acetyltransferase activity, but not O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase activity is an efficient trigger for enhanced cysteine synthesis in planta

physiological function
-
activity is inhibited by the interaction with serine acetyltransferase, the preceding enzyme in the metabolic pathway. Inhibition is exerted by the insertion of serine acetyltransferase C-terminal peptide into the enzyme's active site. The active site determinants that modulate the interaction specificity are investigated by comparing the binding affinity of thirteen pentapeptides, derived from the C-terminal sequences of serine acetyltransferase of closely related species. Subtle changes in protein active sites have profound effects on protein-peptide recognition. Affinity is strongly dependent on the pentapeptide sequence, signaling the relevance of P3-P4-P5 for the strength of binding, and P1-P2 mainly for specificity. The presence of an aromatic residue at P3 results in high affinity peptides with K(diss) in the micromolar and submicromolar range, regardless of the species. An acidic residue, like aspartate at P4, further strengthens the interaction

root plasma membrane SO42- transporter SULTR1,2 physically interacts with the enzyme. The domain of SULTR1,2 important for association with enzyme is called the STAS domain, located at the C-terminus of the transporter and extending from the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm. The binding of enzyme to the STAS domain negatively impacts transporter activity. In contrast, the activity of purified enzyme measured in vitro is enhanced by co-incubation with the STAS domain of SULTR1,2 but not with the analogous domain of the SO42- transporter isoform SULTR1,1. The observations suggest a regulatory model in which interactions between SULTR1,2 and enzyme coordinate internalization of SO42- with the energetic/metabolic state of plant root cells
physiological function
-
the mitochondrial cysteine synthase complex CSC acts as a sensor that regulates the level of serine O-acetyltransferase activity in response to sulfur supply and cysteine demand
physiological function
-
cysteine synthase complex CSC is comprised of the two enzymes that catalyze the final steps in cysteine biosynthesis: serine O-acetyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.30, which produces O-acetyl-L-serine, and O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylase, EC 2.5.1.47, which converts it to cysteine. The system exhibits a contact-induced inactivation of half of each biomolecule, and exhibits a mechanism in which serine O-acetyltransferase interacts with O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylase in a nonallosteric interaction involving its C-terminus. This early docking event appears to fasten the proteins in close proximity. The complex passes through at least three stable conformations in achieving its most stable configuration. Binding of a serine O-acetyltransferase C-terminal peptide is monophasic, and binding at one O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylase active site does not prevent, or otherwise influence, binding at the second. The rate constants governing the first phase of the serine O-acetyltransferase binding reaction are remarkably similar to those for the binding of peptide, suggesting that early docking of serine O-acetyltransferase occurs primarily through the its C-terminus. The inability of the peptide to either induce isomerization or close the distal site suggests that serine O-acetyltransferase structure beyond its C-terminus is required to engage in isomerization and that closure of the unoccupied O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylase active site may be coupled to the one or more isomerizations
physiological function
-
loss of CS26 function results in dramatic phenotypic changes, which are dependent on the light treatment. Under long-day growth conditions, the photosynthetic characterization, based on substomatal CO2 concentrations and CO2 concentration in the chloroplast curves, reveals significant reductions in most of the photosynthetic parameters for cs26, which are unchanged under short-day growth conditions. These parameters include net CO2 assimilation rate, mesophyll conductance, and mitochondrial respiration at darkness. Mutant cs26 under long-day growth conditions requires more absorbed quanta per driven electron flux and fixed CO2. In cs26 plants, the excess electrons that are not used in photochemical reactions may form reactive oxygen species
physiological function
S-sulfocysteine activity of enzyme is essential for the proper photosynthetic performance of the chloroplast under long-day growth conditions. Results suggest that S-sulfocysteine synthase functions as a protein sensor to detect the accumulation of thiosulfate as a result of the inadequate detoxification of reactive oxygen species generated under conditions of excess light to produce the S-sulfocysteine molecule that triggers protection mechanisms of the photosynthetic apparatus
physiological function
-
the enzyme's active site has two access sites. Binding of the enzyme to the C-terminal tail of serine O-acetyltransferase leads to loss of activity due to reduction in ligand accessibility of the second, unoccupied active site. The observed dynamics of the gates show allosteric closure of the unoccupied active site of the enzyme in the cysteine synthase complex, which can hinder substrate binding, abolishing its turnover to cysteine

physiological function
biosynthesis of cysteine is one of the fundamental processes in plants providing the reduced sulfur for cell metabolism. It is accomplished by the sequential action of two enzymes, serine acetyltransferase (SAT) and O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase (OAS-TL). Together they constitute the hetero-oligomeric cysteine synthase (CS) complex through specific protein–protein interactions influencing the rate of cysteine production. The function of the complex formation is not metabolic channeling, but sensing the sulfur status of the cell to properly adjust the sulfur homeostasis. Whereas OAS-TL is only active outside the CS complex, SAT is strongly activated by association with OAS-TL. Mitochondrial isozyme OAS-TL C has an additional function besides cysteine synthesis, regulatory function when complexed with serine acetyltransferase. The formation of the CS complex is also important because of the inhibition of the free serine acetyltransferase by cysteine

physiological function
the bifunctional enzyme, encoded by gene K10H10.2, or cysl-2, shows cysteine synthase activity and also L-3-cyanoalanine synthase activity, EC 4.4.1.9. It has been described as a hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) target. The enzyme regulates the mRNA expression of aging-associated and stress-related genes in wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans. Enzyme treatment protects the wild-type nematodes against oxidative, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and thermal stressors but not cadmium-induced metallic stress. The enzyme is active in vitro and in vivo and protects against lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation. GYY4137 induces longevity and stress resistance, mechanism of action via induction of T24B8.5 and altered transcriptional control of SKN-1

Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of human amoebiasis, is essentially anaerobic, requiring a small amount of oxygen for growth. It cannot tolerate the higher concentration of oxygen present in human tissues or blood. However, during tissue invasion it is exposed to a higher level of oxygen, leading to oxygen stress. Cysteine, which is a vital thiol in Entamoeba histolytica, plays an essential role in its oxygen-defence mechanisms. The major route of cysteine biosynthesis in this parasite is the condensation of O-acetylserine with sulfide by the de novo cysteine-biosynthetic pathway, which involves cysteine synthase (EhCS) as a key enzyme

stopped-flow fluorescence spectroscopy is used to characterize the interaction of serine acetyltransferase with OASS and in the presence of the physiological regulators cysteine and bisulfide. Cysteine synthase assembly occurs via a two-step mechanism involving rapid formation of an encounter complex between the two enzymes, followed by a slow conformational change. The conformational change likely results from the closure of the active site of OASS upon binding of the serine acetyltransferase C-terminal peptide. Bisulfide stabilizes the cysteine synthase complex mainly by decreasing the back rate of the isomerization step. Cysteine, the product of the OASS reaction and a SAT inhibitor, slightly affects the kinetics of cysteine synthase formation leading to destabilization of the complex

Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of human amoebiasis, is essentially anaerobic, requiring a small amount of oxygen for growth. It cannot tolerate the higher concentration of oxygen present in human tissues or blood. However, during tissue invasion it is exposed to a higher level of oxygen, leading to oxygen stress. Cysteine, which is a vital thiol in Entamoeba histolytica, plays an essential role in its oxygen-defence mechanisms. The major route of cysteine biosynthesis in this parasite is the condensation of O-acetylserine with sulfide by the de novo cysteine-biosynthetic pathway, which involves cysteine synthase (EhCS) as a key enzyme

-
the 31P chemical shift of the internal and external Schiff bases of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate in OASS-B are further downfield compared to OASS-A, suggesting a tighter binding of the cofactor in the B-isozyme. The chemical shift of the internal Schiff base (ISB) of OASS-B is 6.2 ppm, the highest value reported for the ISB of a PLP-dependent enzyme. Considering the similarity in the binding sites of the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate cofactor for both isozymes, torsional strain of the C5-C5' bond (O4'-C5'-C5-C4) of the Schiff base is proposed to contribute to the further downfield shift; tighter binding than in OASS-A, treatment with 1 mM hydroxylamine in 500 mM phosphate, pH 7.6, with 0.2 mM dithiothreitol, followed by dialysis against 100 mM phosphate, pH 7.0, with 0.2 mM dithiothreitol gerates apo-enzyme without the cofactor

peroxynitrite
-
nitrating conditions after exposure to peroxynitrite strongly inhibit enzyme activity. Among the isoforms, cytosolic OASA1 is markedly sensitive to nitration. Nitration assays on purified recombinant OASA1 protein lead to 90% reduction of the activity due to inhibition of the enzyme. Inhibition of OASA1 activity upon nitration correlates with the identification of a modified OASA1 protein containing a 3-nitroTyr302 residue. Inhibition caused by Tyr302 nitration on OASA1 activity seems to be due to a drastically reduced O-acetylserine substrate binding to the nitrated protein, and also to reduced stabilization of the pyridoxal-5-phosphate cofactor through hydrogen bonds
serine acetyltransferase
-
serine acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.30) can inhibit O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase catalytic activity with a double mechanism, the competition with O-acetylserine for binding to the enzyme active site and the stabilization of a closed conformation that is less accessible to the natural substrate
