S-Sulfocysteine synthase was isolated from S. typhimurium LT-2 to homogeneous form with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The MW of this enzyme was determined to be .apprx. 55,000. The enzyme consisted of 2 identically sized subunits, and it contained 1 pyridoxal phosphate/subunit. The enzyme catalyzed the biosynthesis of cysteine or S-methylcysteine from sulfide or methanethiol and O-acetylserine, respectively, in addition to the formation of S-sulfocysteine from thiosulfate and O-acetylserine. The enzyme is identical to cysteine synthase B. The intracellular level of this enzyme was regulated by lesser extents of the same factors as those effective for cysteine synthase A.
