1.20.4.3 |
Accepted name: |
mycoredoxin |
Reaction: |
arseno-mycothiol + mycoredoxin = arsenite + mycothiol-mycoredoxin disulfide |
Glossary: |
mycothiol = 1-O-[2-(N2-acetyl-L-cysteinamido)-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranosyl]-1D-myo-inositol |
Other name(s): |
Mrx1; MrxI |
Systematic name: |
arseno-mycothiol:mycoredoxin oxidoreductase |
Comments: |
Reduction of arsenate is part of a defense mechanism of the cell against toxic arsenate. The substrate arseno-mycothiol is formed by EC 2.8.4.2 (arsenate:mycothiol transferase). A second mycothiol recycles mycoredoxin and forms mycothione. |

2.8.4.2 |
Accepted name: |
arsenate-mycothiol transferase |
Reaction: |
arsenate + mycothiol = arseno-mycothiol + H2O |
Glossary: |
mycothiol = 1-O-[2-(N2-acetyl-L-cysteinamido)-2-deoxy--D-glucopyranosyl]-1D-myo-inositol |
Other name(s): |
ArsC1; ArsC2; mycothiol:arsenate transferase |
Systematic name: |
mycothiol:arsenate S-arsenotransferase |
Comments: |
Reduction of arsenate is part of a defence mechanism of the cell against toxic arsenate. The product arseno-mycothiol is reduced by EC 1.20.4.3 (mycoredoxin) to arsenite and mycothiol-mycoredoxin disulfide. Finally, a second mycothiol recycles mycoredoxin and forms mycothione. |
