Escherichia coli Uses a Dedicated Importer and Desulfidase To Ferment Cysteine
CyuA of Escherichia coli is an inducible desulfidase that degrades cysteine to pyruvate, ammonium, and hydrogen sulfide. Workers have conjectured that its role may be to defend bacteria against the toxic effects of cysteine. However, cyuA sits in an operon alongside cyuP, which encodes a cysteine im...
