...Keely E. A. Oldham; Erica J. Prentice; Emma L. Summers; Joanna L. Hicks Serine acetyltransferase (SAT) catalyzes the first step in the two-step pathway to synthesize l -cysteine in bacteria and plants. SAT synthesizes O -acetylserine from substrates l -serine and acetyl coenzyme A and is a key...
