EC 1.8.5.5     
Accepted name: thiosulfate reductase (quinone)
Reaction: sulfite + hydrogen sulfide + a quinone = thiosulfate + a quinol
Other name(s): phsABC (gene names)
Systematic name: sulfite,hydrogen sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase
Comments: 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.
