Structural highlights
Function
METY2_THET8 Catalyzes the conversion of O-acetyl-L-homoserine (OAH) into homocysteine in the methionine biosynthesis pathway. Has weak activity with O-acetyl-L-serine, O-phospho-L-serine, L-serine, O-succinyl-L-homoserine and L-homoserine. Shows a very low CTT gamma-synthase activity.[1]
