sulfite,hydrogen sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Salmonella enterica, is similar to EC 1.17.5.3, formate dehydrogenase-N. It contains a molybdopterin-guanine dinucleotide, five [4Fe-4S] clusters and two heme b groups. The reaction occurs in vivo in the direction of thiosulfate disproportionation, which is highly endergonic. It is driven by the proton motive force that occurs across the cytoplasmic membrane.
