KEGG   ENZYME: 1.8.2.5
Entry
EC 1.8.2.5                  Enzyme                                 
Name
thiosulfate reductase (cytochrome)
Class
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on a sulfur group of donors;
With a cytochrome as acceptor
Sysname
sulfite,hydrogen sulfide:ferricytochrome-c3 oxidoreductase (thiosulfate-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
sulfite + hydrogen sulfide + 2 ferricytochrome c3 = thiosulfate + 2 ferrocytochrome c3 [RN:R11606]
Reaction(KEGG)
R11606
Substrate
sulfite [CPD:C00094];
hydrogen sulfide [CPD:C00283];
ferricytochrome c3 [CPD:C02682]
Product
thiosulfate [CPD:C00320];
ferrocytochrome c3 [CPD:C02684]
Comment
The enzyme is found in sulfate-reducing bacteria. The source of the electrons is molecular hydrogen, via EC 1.12.2.1, cytochrome-c3 hydrogenase. The organisms utilize the sulfite that is produced for energy generation by EC 1.8.99.5, dissimilatory sulfite reductase.
History
EC 1.8.2.5 created 2017
