KEGG ENZYME: 1.13.11.55

ENZYME: 1.13.11.55

Entry

EC 1.13.11.55               Enzyme

Name

sulfur oxygenase/reductase;
SOR;
sulfur oxygenase;
sulfur oxygenase reductase

Class

Oxidoreductases;
Acting on single donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen (oxygenases);
With incorporation of two atoms of oxygen

Sysname

sulfur:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydrogen-sulfide- and sulfite-forming)

Reaction(IUBMB)

4 sulfur + 4 H2O + O2 = 2 hydrogen sulfide + 2 sulfite [RN:R07365]

Reaction(KEGG)

R07365

Substrate

sulfur [CPD:C00087];
H2O [CPD:C00001];
O2 [CPD:C00007]

Product

hydrogen sulfide [CPD:C00283];
sulfite [CPD:C00094]

Comment

This enzyme, which is found in thermophilic microorganisms, contains one mononuclear none-heme iron centre per subunit. Elemental sulfur is both the electron donor and one of the two known acceptors, the other being oxygen. Thiosulfate is also observed as a product, but is likely formed non-enzymically by a reaction between sulfite and sulfur [1]. This enzyme differs from EC 1.13.11.18, persulfide dioxygenase and EC 1.12.98.4, sulfhydrogenase, in that both activities occur simultaneously.
