Structural highlights
1ysj is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Bacillus subtilis. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
SCMP_BACSU Probably catalyzes the deacetylation of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to acetate and cysteine. Is involved in a S-(2-succino)cysteine (2SC) degradation pathway that allows B.subtilis to grow on 2SC as a sole sulfur source, via its metabolization to cysteine.[1]
