White Crystalline Solid | [Uses]
Intermediate for transsulfuration whereby a mammal transfers the sulfur of methionine via homocysteine to cysteine. | [Uses]
Intermediate in transsulfuration whereby the mammal transfers the sulfur of methionine via homocysteine to cysteine | [Definition]
ChEBI: A modified amino acid generated by enzymic means from homocysteine and serine. | [Biological Activity]
Cystathionine is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of the amino acid cysteine. Cystathionine is used as a substrate to differentiate and analyze cystathionine gamma-lyase(s). |
