Description
An iron-sulfur protein. The enzyme from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus is part of two heterotetrameric complexes where the β and γ subunits function as sulfur reductase and the α and Δ subunits function as hydrogenases (EC 1.12.1.3, hydrogen dehydrogenase [NADP+] and EC 1.12.1.4, hydrogen dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+], respectively). 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.
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 reductase
Reaction
H2 + (sulfide)n = hydrogen sulfide + (sulfide)n-1
