Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * CTH is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. * It is expressed in both soluble and membrane-bound forms. * It is a key regulator of cysteine metabolism and plays a role in maintaining cellular redox balance. **Pathways and functions:** * CTH is involved in the regulation of cysteine metabolism, including the formation of cystathionine from homocysteine and the degradation of cysteine and homocysteine. * It also plays a role in the metabolism of other amino acids and derivatives, such as L-cysteine and L-cystine. * It is involved in the degradation of lipid molecules and the metabolism of semet, sec, and mesec. * CTH also has a role in the regulation of sulfur amino acid metabolism and the detoxification of selenocystathionine. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the CTH gene have been linked to several human diseases, including liver diseases, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. * CTH inhibitors are being investigated as potential therapeutic agents for these diseases. **Additional points:** * CTH is a highly conserved protein with homologs in other species. * It is a target for several drugs, including carnitine, which can inhibit its activity. * CTH is a promising target for the treatment of human diseases.
