EC 1.8.4.9 Details
EC number
1.8.4.9
Accepted name
adenylyl-sulfate reductase (glutathione)
Reaction
AMP + sulfite + glutathione disulfide = adenylyl sulfate + 2 glutathione
Other name(s)
5′-adenylylsulfate reductase (also used for EC 1.8.99.2), AMP,sulfite:oxidized-glutathione oxidoreductase (adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate-forming), plant-type 5′-adenylylsulfate reductase
Systematic name
AMP,sulfite:glutathione-disulfide oxidoreductase (adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate-forming)
CAS registry number
355840-27-6
Comment
This enzyme differs from EC 1.8.99.2, adenylyl-sulfate reductase, in using glutathione as the reductant. Glutathione can be replaced by γ-glutamylcysteine or dithiothreitol, but not by thioredoxin, glutaredoxin or 2-sulfanylethan-1-ol (2-mercaptoethanol). The enzyme from the mouseear cress, Arabidopsis thaliana, contains a glutaredoxin-like domain. The enzyme is also found in other photosynthetic eukaryotes, e.g., the Madagascar periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus and the hollow green seaweed, Ulva intestinalis.
