Biochem/physiol Actions
DL-Propargylglycine (PAG) is an irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme cystathionine γ-lyase (GCL), a key enzyme involved in glutathione synthesis and the metabolic transsulfuration pathway which regulates homocysteine concentration and mediates cysteine synthesis. Treatment of animal disease models with PAG was shown to alleviate symptoms of diseases that impair the formation or action of hydrogen sulfide (H2S).

The transsulfuration pathway, which aids in regulating homocysteine concentration and mediates cysteine synthesis, may be sensitive to vitamin B-6 status because cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) require pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP). To assess relations between vitamin B-6 and transsulfuration

Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is increasingly being recognized as an important signalling molecule in the cardiovascular and nervous systems. The production of H2S from L-cysteine is catalysed primarily by two enzymes, cystathionine gamma-lyase and cystathionine beta-synthase. Evidence is accumulating to demonstrate
