Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for CBS(NM_001178009.3) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD), which can lead to homocystinuria. [provided by RefSeq].

- Selective biochemical screening may ascertain only approximately 25% of all homocystinuric patients.
- A novel class of missense mutations in homocystinurics is described, located in the non-catalytic C-terminal region of CBS yielding enzymes that are catalytically active but deficient in their response to S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet).

- The activation domain mutation D444N reduces the steady-state levels of cystathionine beta-synthase 4-fold and drastically increases the activation response to AdoMet (by ~100-fold) so that it can no longer be activated at physiological concentrations.

- results confirm the ability of CBS to produce H2S, but show in contrast to prior reports that the major mechanism is via beta-replacement and not cysteine hydrolysis
- The heme of cystathionine beta-synthase regulates activity through changes in redox state, because the heme prefers to be in the ferric state at physiological pH.

- Our results show that elevated tHcy per se is not responsible for the neonatal lethality observed in Cbs-/- animals and suggests that CBS protein may have a function in addition to its role in homocysteine catabolism
- 844ins68 mutation and VNTR allele 19 are independent risk factors for Alzheimer disease development in subjects aged 75 years or more.
- Mutation analysis of the CBS gene in Korean patients with homocystinuria was performed. Eight mutations were identified, including four known mutations (T257M, R336C, T353M, and G347S) and four novel mutations (L154Q, A155V, del234D, and A288T).

- cystathionine beta-synthase may have a role in kidney function
- 31 bp VNTR in CBS is genetic determinant of post-methionine load tHcy concentrations. Since post-methionine load tHcy concentrations are found to be associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease, this 31 bp VNTR may be risk factor for CVD.

- plasma Hcy-thiolactone is elevated 59-fold and 72-fold in human patients with hyperhomocysteinemia secondary to mutations in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and cystathionine beta-synthase genes, respectively
- this is the first example of mutations in the catalytic core of cystathionine beta-synthase that result in failure of S-adenosylmethionine-dependent regulation.
- Chemical chaperones present during the initial folding process may facilitate proper folding of several mutant CBS proteins and suggest it may be possible to treat some inborn errors of metabolism with agents that enhance proper protein folding.
