The biosynthesis of cysteine and homocysteine in Methanococcus jannaschii

The pathway for the biosynthesis of cysteine and homocysteine in Methanococcus jannaschii has been examined using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) stable isotope dilution method to identify and quantitate the intermediates in the pathways. The first step in the pathway, and the one res...
