Genome Property Definition Page
| Accession | GenProp0218 |
| Name | cysteine biosynthesis from serine |
| Type | PATHWAY |
| Description | The conversion of L-serine to L-cysteine takes two enzymatic steps, described here. The first step involves Serine acetyl-transferase, and the second step involves acetylserine lyase which forms L-cysteine. |
| JCVI Role | Serine family |
| Parent Property | GenProp0305: cysteine biosynthesis |
