Discovery of dimethylsulfoxonium propionate lyases – a missing enzyme relevant to the global sulfur cycle

Abstract

Six dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) lyases have been shown to cleave the marine sulfur metabolite dimethylsulfoxonium propionate (DMSOP) into DMSO and acrylate. This discovery characterises a missing enzyme relevant to the global sulfur cycle.
