1.8.4.15

Accepted name:

protein dithiol oxidoreductase (disulfide-forming)

Reaction:

a [DsbA protein] carrying a disulfide bond + a [protein] with reduced L-cysteine residues = a [DsbA protein] with reduced L-cysteine residues + a [protein] carrying a disulfide bond

Other name(s):

dsbA (gene name)

Systematic name:

protein dithiol:[DsbA protein] oxidoreductase (protein disulfide-forming)

Comments:

DsbA is a periplasmic thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase found in Gram-negative bacteria that promotes protein disulfide bond formation. DsbA contains a redox active disulfide bond that is catalytically transferred via disulfide exchange to a diverse range of newly translocated protein substrates. The protein is restored to the oxidized state by EC 1.8.5.9, protein dithiol:quinone oxidoreductase DsbB.
