Summary: Predicted to enable cystathionine beta-synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in cysteine biosynthetic process from serine. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including cerebral infarction; homocystinuria; hyperhomocysteinemia; malaria; and neural tube defect. Orthologous to human CBS (cystathionine beta-synthase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
