Activity of the beta-cyanoalanine synthase pathway is associated with the response to abiotic stress by Arabidopsis thaliana.
… to maintain cyanide homeostasis such as the β-cyanoalanine pathway whereby cysteine reacts with cyanide forming β--cyanoalanine, mediated by β-cyanoalanine synthase and cysteine synthase. A dual nitrilase 4 enzyme then converts the β-cyanoalanine into asparagine or aspartate and ammonium. …

Engineering cyanide-tolerant Arabidopsis thaliana
… and as a by-product of ethylene biosynthesis. β-Cyanoalanine synthase prevents self-poisoning by combining endogenous cyanide with cysteine in the mitochondria to form β-cyanoalanine, which is further hydrolysed to asparagine, or aspartate and ammonia, by plant nitrilase 4 enzymes. β-Cyanoalanine …
