Cofactor

EC Number Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
1.15.1.2 rubredoxin rubredoxins, small proteins with a [FeCys4] center known to be involved in electron transfer processes, are generally assumed to be the direct electron donors to SOR, based on the fact that the genes encoding rubredoxin and SOR lie in the same operon in some bacteria. Consistently, reduced rubredoxins are shown to reduce both 1Fe- and 2Fe-SORs, but physiological electron donors other than rubredoxins must exist because rubredoxins are missing in a large number of organisms that encode SORs Giardia intestinalis

General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.15.1.2 evolution Giardia trophozoite expresses an enzyme probably acquired from a prokaryote by lateral gene transfer. Rubredoxins, small proteins with a [FeCys4] center known to be involved in electron transfer processes, are generally assumed to be the direct electron donors to SOR, based on the fact that the genes encoding rubredoxin and SOR lie in the same operon in some bacteria. Consistently, reduced rubredoxins are shown to reduce both 1Fe- and 2Fe-SORs, but physiological electron donors other than rubredoxins must exist because rubredoxins are missing in a large number of organisms that encode SORs Giardia intestinalis
