Overview of Gene Research
Cbs, or cystathionine β -synthase, is an evolutionarily conserved protein domain present in the proteome of archaebacteria, prokaryotes, and eukaryotes [2]. CBS domains usually come in tandem repeats and are found in cytosolic and membrane proteins with various functions like metabolic enzymes, kinases, and channels [2]. They can form an intramolecular dimeric structure (CBS pair) [2]. Mutations in CBS domains of human proteins are associated with several hereditary diseases, such as homocystinuria, retinitis pigmentosa, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and myotonia congenital [2]. CBS domains are proposed to affect protein multimerization, sorting, channel gating, and ligand binding, and are hypothesized to function as sensors of intracellular metabolites [2].
CBS domains may undergo conformational changes upon binding of adenosine derivatives, metal ions, or nucleic acids [1]. The degree and direction of these changes depend on the ligand type, binding site features, and the association manner of Bateman modules (formed by paired CBS motifs) [1]. Regulatory CBS domains, existing as two or four tandem copies in numerous cytosolic and membrane-associated proteins, can act as auto-inhibitory regulatory units, and upon binding to adenosine nucleotides, they can either activate or further inhibit protein function, enabling proteins containing CBS domains to sense cell energy levels [3].
In summary, Cbs is a conserved protein domain with a crucial role in various cellular functions and protein regulation. Mutations in its domains are linked to multiple hereditary diseases. Understanding Cbs through studies on its structure-function relationships and ligand-binding properties can provide insights into the mechanisms underlying these diseases and potentially offer new strategies for diagnosis and treatment [1,2,3].
