    ENTRY       EC 4.4.1.6
    NAME        S-Alkylcysteine lyase
    CLASS       Lyases
                Carbon-sulfur lyases
    SYSNAME     S-Alkyl-L-cysteine alkylthiol-lyase (deaminating)
    REACTION    an S-Alkyl-L-cysteine + H2O = an Alkyl thiol + NH3 + Pyruvate
    SUBSTRATE   S-Alkyl-L-cysteine
                H2O
    PRODUCT     Alkyl thiol
                NH3
                Pyruvate
    COFACTOR    Pyridoxal phosphate
    COMMENT     A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. Decomposes S-alkyl-L-cysteines by
                alpha,beta-elimination. Possibly identical, in yeast, with
                EC 4.4.1.8.
