Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur atoms from L-cysteine to produce L-alanine. Activity is stimulated 40-to 100-fold by SufU, which acts as a second substrate for this enzyme following release of Ala, and generating SufU.S. A mixture of SufS, SufU, Fra and L-cysteine is able to reconstitute Fe-S clusters on apo-aconitase (citB), reconstituting aconitase activity. Publication Abstract from PubMed Cysteine desulfurase enzymes catalyze sulfur mobilization from l-cysteine to sulfur-containing biomolecules such as iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters and thio-tRNAs. The enzymes utilize the cofactor pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP), which forms the external substrate- and product-aldimines and ketimines during catalysis and are grouped into two types (I and II) based on their different catalytic loops. To clarify the structure-based catalytic mechanisms for each group, we determined the structures of the external substrate- and product-aldimines as catalytic intermediates of NifS (type I) and SufS (type II) that are involved in Fe-S cluster biosynthesis using X-ray crystallographic snapshot analysis. As a common intermediate structure, the thiol group of the PLP-l-cysteine external aldimine is stabilized by the conserved histidine adjacent to PLP through a polar interaction. This interaction makes the thiol group orientated for subsequent nucleophilic attack by a conserved cysteine residue on the catalytic loop in the state of PLP-l-cysteine ketimine, which is formed from the PLP-l-cysteine aldimine. Unlike the intermediates, structural changes of the loops were different between the type I and II enzymes. In the type I enzyme, conformational and topological change of the loop is necessary for nucleophilic attack by the cysteine. In contrast, the loop in type II cysteine desulfurase enzymes showed no large conformational change; rather, it might possibly orient the thiol group of the catalytic cysteine for nucleophilic attack toward PLP-l-cysteine. The present structures allow a revision of the catalytic mechanism and may provide a clue for consideration of enzyme function, structural diversity, and evolution of cysteine desulfurase enzymes.
