Identification and functional analysis of Escherichia coli cysteine desulfhydrases.

In Escherichia coli, three additional proteins having L-cysteine desulfhydrase activity were identified as O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase-A, O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase-B, and MalY protein, in addition to tryptophanase and cystathionine beta-lyase, which have been reported previously. The gene disruption for each protein was significantly effective for overproduction of L-cysteine and L-cystine. Growth phenotype and transcriptional analyses suggest that tryptophanase contributes primarily to L-cysteine degradation.[1]
