CTH (Cystathionine gamma-lyase or cystathionase) belongs to the trans-sulfuration enzymes family. This protein is an enzyme which breaks down cystathionine into cysteine and alpha-ketobutyrate. CTH catalyzes the last step in the transsulfuration pathway from methionine to cysteine. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-405 of human CTH, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
