O-acetylhomoserine aminocarboxypropyltransferase EC#: 2.5.1.49; ChemWhat Code: 1377953

Product Name O-acetylhomoserine aminocarboxypropyltransferase
Example Structure Example Structure of O-acetylhomoserine aminocarboxypropyltransferase EC#: 2.5.1.49
Synonyms AHS, EC 4.2.99.10, gamma-cyano-alpha-aminobutyric acid synthase, Homocysteine synthase, MetC, methionine synthase, MetY, O-acetyl-L-homoserine (thiol)-lyase, O-acetyl-L-homoserine acetate-lyase (adding methanethiol), O-acetyl-L-homoserine sulfhydrolase, o-acetyl-L-homoserine sulfhydrylase, O-acetylhomoserine sulfhydrolase, O-acetylhomoserine sulfhydrylase, OAH, OAH SHase, OAH SHLase, OAH sulfhydrylase, OAH-OAS sulfhydrylase, oah2 gene product, OAHS, OAS-OAH sulfhydrylase
EC Number 2.5.1.49
CAS Registry Number 37290-90-7
Comments Also reacts with other thiols and H2S, producing homocysteine or thioethers. The name methionine synthase is more commonly applied to EC 2.1.1.13, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine S-methyltransferase. The enzyme from baker’s yeast can also catalyse the reaction of EC 2.5.1.47, cysteine synthase, but more slowly.
Cofactor
History
Reactions O-acetyl-L-homoserine + methanethiol = L-methionine + acetate.
