Several cases of liver, endometrial and colorectal cancers exhibited moderate cytoplasmic and occasional nuclear immunoreactivity while most prostate and testicular cancers were weakly stained. Remaining tumors were mainly negative.

Cystathionine gamma-lyase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a cytoplasmic enzyme in the trans-sulfuration pathway that converts cystathione derived from methionine into cysteine. Glutathione synthesis in the liver is dependent upon the availability of cysteine. Mutations in this gene cause cystathioninuria. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
