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:20506325, PubMed:23974653, PubMed:23981774). Also involved in the production of hydrogen sulfide, a gasotransmitter with signaling and cytoprotective effects on neurons (By similarity).
Alternative names

Notes
Human CBS SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CBS protein in Cell Lysate. Quantitate Human CBS with 69.062 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

- Activity summary
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of homocysteine and serine into cystathionine. It is sometimes referred to as CBS monelyne or cystathionine synthase. CBS is a heme-containing protein with a molecular mass of approximately 63 kDa. It is expressed widely in tissues including the liver brain and kidney. The activity of CBS is regulated by various factors including the availability of cofactors like pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
- Biological function summary
The enzyme CBS plays a role in the transsulfuration pathway where it helps in the metabolism of homocysteine. CBS is a part of a larger complex in some tissues where it interacts with other enzymes involved in sulfur amino acid metabolism. This function is important in maintaining cellular sulfur amino acid balance and protecting cells from oxidative stress caused by elevated levels of homocysteine.
- Pathways
CBS functions in the transsulfuration pathway which connects the methionine cycle and the synthesis of glutathione. This pathway is essential for detoxification and antioxidant protection. CBS interrelates with other proteins like cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) within this pathway. The interplay between CBS and CGL ensures the conversion of homocysteine to cysteine which is a precursor for the synthesis of glutathione.
- Associated diseases and disorders
CBS deficiency is linked to homocystinuria a disorder characterized by high levels of homocysteine in the blood and urine. Symptoms include cardiovascular problems and developmental delays. Furthermore alterations in CBS activity relate to cardiovascular diseases due to hyperhomocysteinemia. Within these conditions CBS interacts with other proteins involved in homocysteine metabolism such as methionine synthase which also contributes to the complexity of these disorders.

Interpolated concentration of native CBS was measured in duplicate at different sample concentrations. Undiluted samples are as follows: 50 µg/mL Raji cell extract, 125 µg/mL LNCaP cell extract, and 125 µg/mL MCF-7 cell extract. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). Sample dilutions are made in 1X Cell Extraction Buffer PTR.
