Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Multifunctional enzyme**: TST exhibits multiple enzymatic activities, including thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase, and cysteine desulfhydrase. 2. **Widespread expression**: TST is expressed in various cell types, including colon epithelial cells, enterocytes, epithelial cells of the proximal tubule, and stem cells. 3. **Metabolic significance**: TST is involved in the catabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids and the oxidation of sulfide to sulfate, which is essential for maintaining cellular redox balance. 4. **Immune regulation**: Recent studies suggest that TST plays a role in regulating immune responses, possibly through the modulation of cytokine production and immune cell function. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids**: TST is involved in the catabolism of cysteine and homocysteine, which are essential sulfur-containing amino acids. 2. **Sulfide oxidation to sulfate**: TST is responsible for the oxidation of sulfide to sulfate, which is a critical step in maintaining cellular redox balance. 3. **Epithelial differentiation**: TST is expressed in epithelial cells, where it may play a role in regulating epithelial differentiation and maintenance. 4. **Mitochondrial function**: TST is localized to the mitochondrial matrix, where it may contribute to mitochondrial function and redox balance. 5. **Immune regulation**: TST may regulate immune responses through the modulation of cytokine production and immune cell function. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Cysteine metabolism disorders**: Abnormalities in TST expression or function may contribute to cysteine metabolism disorders, such as cystinuria and homocystinuria. 2. **Cancer and epithelial dysregulation**: Altered TST expression has been observed in various cancers, suggesting its potential role in epithelial dysregulation and tumorigenesis. 3. **Neurological disorders**: TST may play a role in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, where mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress are prominent features. 4. **Immunological disorders**: Abnormal TST expression may contribute to immunological disorders, such as autoimmune diseases and inflammatory conditions. In conclusion, thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST) is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a critical role in regulating metabolic processes, immune responses, and epithelial differentiation. Further studies are needed to fully elucidate the complexities of TST and its significance in various diseases.
