1.8.2.1 |
| Accepted name: |
sulfite dehydrogenase (cytochrome) |
| Reaction: |
sulfite + 2 ferricytochrome c + H2O = sulfate + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+ |
| Other name(s): |
sulfite cytochrome c reductase; sulfite-cytochrome c oxidoreductase; sulfite oxidase (ambiguous); sulfite dehydrogenase (ambiguous); sorAB (gene names) |
| Systematic name: |
sulfite:ferricytochrome-c oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
Associated with cytochrome c-551. The enzyme from the bacterium Starkeya novella contains a molybdopyranopterin cofactor and a smaller monoheme cytochrome c subunit. cf. EC 1.8.5.6, sulfite dehydrogenase (quinone). |
