Chemical Information
FooDB NameL-Cystathionine
DescriptionIsolated from Phallus impudicus (common stinkhorn) Cystathionine is a dipeptide formed by serine and homocysteine. Cystathioninuria is a prominent manifestation of vitamin-B6 deficiency. The transsulfuration of methionine yields homocysteine, which combines with serine to form cystathionine, the proximate precursor of cysteine through the enzymatic activity of cystathionase. In conditions in which cystathionine gamma-synthase or cystathionase is deficient, for example, there is cystathioninuria. Although cystathionine has not been detected in normal human serum or plasma by most conventional methods, gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric methodology detected a mean concentration of cystathionine in normal human serum of 140 nM, with a range of 65 to 301 nM.567 Cystathionine concentrations in CSF have been 10, 1, and 0.5 uM, and "not detected." Only traces (i.e., <1 uM) of cystathionine are present in normal CSF.587. gamma-Cystathionase deficiency provided the first instance in which, in a human, the major biochemical abnormality due to a defined enzyme defect was clearly shown to be alleviated by administration of large doses of pyridoxine. The response in gamma-cystathionase-deficient patients is not attributable to correction of a preexisting deficiency of this vitamin. (OMMBID, Chap. 88); Cystathionine is an intermediate in the synthesis of cysteine. L-Cystathionine is found in many foods, some of which are spirulina, greenthread tea, gooseberry, and quinoa.
