CD Accession:
cd06453
CD Definition:
Cysteine desulfurase (SufS)-like. This family belongs to the pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent aspartate aminotransferase superfamily (fold I). The major groups in this CD correspond to cysteine desulfurase (SufS) and selenocysteine lyase. SufS catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur and selenium atoms from L-cysteine, L-cystine, L-selenocysteine, and L-selenocystine to produce L-alanine; and selenocysteine lyase catalyzes the decomposition of L-selenocysteine.
