1.8.5.2 |
| Accepted name: |
thiosulfate dehydrogenase (quinone) |
| Reaction: |
2 thiosulfate + 6-decylubiquinone = tetrathionate + 6-decylubiquinol |
| Other name(s): |
thiosulfate:quinone oxidoreductase; thiosulphate:quinone oxidoreductase; thiosulfate oxidoreductase, tetrathionate-forming; TQO |
| Systematic name: |
thiosulfate:6-decylubiquinone oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
The reaction can also proceed with ferricyanide as the electron acceptor, but more slowly. Unlike EC 1.8.2.2, thiosulfate dehydrogenase, this enzyme cannot utilize cytochrome c as an acceptor. |
