1.8.1.19 |
| Accepted name: |
sulfide dehydrogenase |
| Reaction: |
hydrogen sulfide + (sulfide)n + NADP+ = (sulfide)n+1 + NADPH + H+ |
| Other name(s): |
SuDH |
| Systematic name: |
hydrogen sulfide,polysulfide:NADP+ oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
A iron-sulfur flavoprotein. In the archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus the enzyme is involved in the oxidation of NADPH which is produced in peptide degradation. The enzyme also catalyses the reduction of sulfur with lower activity. |
