an L-cysteine-S-conjugate H2O = a thiol NH3 pyruvate (overall reaction)
(1a) an L-cysteine-S-conjugate = a thiol 2-aminoprop-2-enoate
(1b) 2-aminoprop-2-enoate = 2-iminopropanoate (spontaneous)
(1c) 2-iminopropanoate H2O = pyruvate NH3 (spontaneous)

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the class of carbon-sulfur lyases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-cysteine-S-conjugate thiol-lyase (deaminating; pyruvate-forming). Other names in common use include cysteine conjugate β-lyase, glutamine transaminase K/cysteine conjugate β-lyase, and L-cysteine-S-conjugate thiol-lyase (deaminating). It employs one cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate.
