- Function
- Hydro-lyase catalyzing the first step of the transsulfuration pathway, where the hydroxyl group of L-serine is displaced by L- homocysteine in a beta-replacement reaction to form L-cystathionine, the precursor of L-cysteine. This catabolic route allows the elimination of L-methionine and the toxic metabolite L-homocysteine (PubMed:23981774, PubMed:20506325, PubMed:23974653). Also involved in the production of hydrogen sulfide, a gasotransmitter with signaling and cytoprotective effects on neuron... (Source: Uniprot)

The CBS gene on chromosome 21 is overexpressed in patients with trisomy 21. This paper (Pogribna et al., 2001; PMID: 11391481) evaluated the impact of overexpression of the CBS gene on homocysteine metabolism in children with DS and to determine whether the supplementation of trisomy 21 lymphoblasts in vitro with selected nutrients would shift the genetically induced metabolic imbalance. They found that plasma levels of cystathionine and cysteine were significantly increased in children with DS, consistent with an increase in CBS activity. The increased activity of CBS in Down syndrome significantly alters homocysteine metabolism so that the folate-dependent resynthesis of methionine is compromised. The decreased availability of homocysteine promotes the well-established 'folate trap,' creating a functional folate deficiency that may contribute to the metabolic pathology of this complex genetic disorder.
