EC 1.8.2.7 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.8.2.7

Accepted name

thiocyanate desulfurase

Reaction

thiocyanate + 2 ferricytochrome c + H₂O = cyanate + sulfur + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H⁺

Other name(s)

TcDH, thiocyanate dehydrogenase

Systematic name

thiocyanate:cytochrome c oxidoreductase (cyanate and sulfur-forming)

Comment

The enzyme, characterized from the haloalkaliphilic sulfur-oxidizing bacterium Thioalkalivibrio paradoxus, contains three copper ions in its active site. It catalyses the direct conversion of thiocyanate into cyanate and elemental sulfur without involvement of molecular oxygen.
