Abstract excerpt
Cystathionine beta synthase (CBS) is the only reaction that removes homocysteine from methionine cycle and redirects it to the transsulfuration pathway. The c.[833T>C;844_845ins68] mutation in the CBS gene has been reported initially as corresponding to classic homocystinuria. Studies showing that the insertion is associated with very smalls amounts of the transcript in the nucleus; others suggest that the...
