Survey of the photosynthetic bacteria for rhodanese (thiosulfate: cyanide sulfur transferase) activity.
Rhodanese activity was demonstrated in extracts from all three taxonomic families of photosynthetic bacteria, and this activity appeared to be uncorrelated with thiosulfate metabolism.
متن کاملCoenzyme F420-dependent sulfite reductase-enabled sulfite detoxification and use of sulfite as a sole sulfur source by Methanococcus maripaludis.
Coenzyme F(420)-dependent sulfite reductase (Fsr) of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, a sulfite-tolerant methanogen, was expressed with activity in Methanococcus maripaludis, a sulfite-sensitive methanogen. The recombinant organism reduced sulfite to sulfide and grew with sulfite as the sole sulfur source, indicating that Fsr is a sulfite detoxification and assimilation enzyme for methanogens and...
متن کاملCharacterization of rhodanese-tetracyanonickelate. An active site complex that slows sulfur-free rhodanese conversion to inert conformers.
The structure of the rhodanese-tetracyanonickelate (E X Ni(CN)2-4) complex has been characterized here in spectral and physical studies using urea as a structural perturbant. UV difference absorption, sedimentation velocity ultracentrifugation, fluorescence, and circular dichroism data show no significant conformational differences between sulfur-free rhodanese (E) and the E X Ni(CN)2-4 complex...
متن کاملMitochondrial rhodanese: membrane-bound and complexed activity.
We have proposed that phosphorylated and dephosphorylated forms of the mitochondrial sulfurtransferase, rhodanese, function as converter enzymes that interact with membrane-bound iron-sulfur centers of the electron transport chain to modulate the rate of mitochondrial respiration (Ogata, K., Dai, X., and Volini, M. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 204, 2718-2725). In the present studies, we have explored ...
متن کاملInvolvement of Pseudomonas aeruginosa rhodanese in protection from cyanide toxicity.
Cyanide is a serious environmental pollutant and a biocontrol metabolite in plant growth-promoting Pseudomonas species. Here we report on the presence of multiple sulfurtransferases in the cyanogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 and investigate in detail RhdA, a thiosulfate:cyanide sulfurtransferase (rhodanese) which converts cyanide to less toxic thiocyanate. RhdA is a cytoplasmic enz...
