An archaeal ADP-dependent serine kinase involved in cysteine biosynthesis and serine metabolism

An archaeal ADP-dependent serine kinase involved in cysteine biosynthesis and serine metabolism

Routes for cysteine biosynthesis are still unknown in many archaea. Here we find that the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis generates cysteine from serine via O-phosphoserine, in addition to the classical route from 3-phosphoglycerate. The protein responsible for serine phosphoryl...
