ENZYME entry: EC 1.12.98.4
Accepted Name |
sulfhydrogenase.
|
Alternative Name(s) |
sulfur reductase. |
Reaction catalysed |
H2 + n sulfur <=> H(+) + hydrogen sulfide + (n-1) sulfur |
Comment(s) |
- The enzyme from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus is
part of two heterotetrameric complexes where the beta and gamma
subunits function as sulfur reductase and the alpha and delta
subunits function as hydrogenases (EC 1.12.1.3 and EC 1.12.1.4).
- Sulfur can also be used as substrate, but since it is insoluble in
aqueous solution and polysulfide is generated abiotically by the
reaction of hydrogen sulfide and sulfur, polysulfide is believed to
be the true substrate.
- Formerly EC 1.97.1.3.
