Description
An iron protein. Perthiols, formed spontaneously by interactions between thiols and elemental sulfur or sulfide, are the only acceptable substrate to the enzyme. The sulfite that is formed by the enzyme can be further converted into sulfate, thiosulfate or S-sulfoglutathione (GSSO3-) non-enzymically.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
sulfur oxygenase (incorrect); sulfur:oxygen oxidoreductase (incorrect); sulfur dioxygenase (incorrect)
Reaction
S-sulfanylglutathione + O2 + H2O = glutathione + sulfite + 2 H+ (overall reaction); (1a) S-sulfanylglutathione + O2 = S-sulfinatoglutathione + H+; (1b) S-sulfinatoglutathione + H2O = glutathione + sulfite + H+ (spontaneous)
