Structure of Soybean β-Cyanoalanine Synthase and the Molecular Basis for Cyanide Detoxification in Plants

2012

Yi, Hankuil | Juergens, Matthew | Jez, Joseph

β-Cyanoalanine synthase detoxifies cyanide, which is produced during ethylene biosynthesis. The three-dimensional structure of β-cyanoalanine synthase provides a molecular view of how this enzyme performs its protective function and reveals evolutionary changes in the active site that distinguish it from other related enzymes.
