Protein
Bifunctional L-3-cyanoalanine synthase/cysteine synthase 1, mitochondrial
Organism
Solanum tuberosum
Function
The cyanoalanine synthesis reaction is more efficient than the cysteine synthase activity. Probably involved in detoxification of toxic cyanide produced in plant tissues.
Similarity
Belongs to the cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta-synthase family.
