Sulfur Isotope Effects of Dissimilatory Sulfite Reductase
The precise interpretation of environmental sulfur isotope records requires a quantitative understanding of the biochemical controls on sulfur isotope fractionation by the principle isotope-fractionating process within the S cycle, microbial sulfate reduction (MSR). Here we provide the only direct observation of the major ((34)S/(32)S) and minor ((33)S/(32)S, (36)S/(32)S) sulfur isotope fractio...
متن کاملCytoplasmic Sulfurtransferases in the Purple Sulfur Bacterium Allochromatium vinosum: Evidence for Sulfur Transfer from DsrEFH to DsrC
While the importance of sulfur transfer reactions is well established for a number of biosynthetic pathways, evidence has only started to emerge that sulfurtransferases may also be major players in sulfur-based microbial energy metabolism. Among the first organisms studied in this regard is the phototrophic purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum. During the oxidation of reduced sulfur s...
متن کاملRegulation of Dissimilatory Sulfur Oxidation in the Purple Sulfur Bacterium Allochromatium Vinosum
In the purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum, thiosulfate oxidation is strictly dependent on the presence of three periplasmic Sox proteins encoded by the soxBXAK and soxYZ genes. It is also well documented that proteins encoded in the dissimilatory sulfite reductase (dsr) operon, dsrABEFHCMKLJOPNRS, are essential for the oxidation of sulfur that is stored intracellularly as an obligat...
متن کامل(57)Fe ENDOR spectroscopy on the iron-sulfur cluster involved in substrate reduction of heterodisulfide reductase.
Heterodisulfide reductase (Hdr) from methanogenic archea is an iron-sulfur protein that catalyzes the reversible two-electron reduction of the mixed disulfide CoM-S-S-CoB to the thiol coenzymes, coenzyme M (CoM-SH) and coenzyme B (CoB-SH). It is unusual that this enzyme uses an iron-sulfur cluster to mediate disulfide reduction in two one-electron steps via site-specific cluster chemistry. Upon...
متن کاملThe protein kinase Sch9 is a key regulator of sphingolipid metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein kinase Sch9 is an in vitro and in vivo effector of sphingolipid signaling. This study examines the link between Sch9 and sphingolipid metabolism in S. cerevisiae in vivo based on the observation that the sch9Δ mutant displays altered sensitivity to different inhibitors of sphingolipid metabolism, namely myriocin and aureobasidin A. Sphingolipid profiling ind...
