1.97.1.14

Accepted name:

selenate reductase (quinol)

Reaction:

a quinone + selenite + H₂O = a quinol + selenate

Other name(s):

srdA (gene name); srdB (gene name); srdC (gene name)

Systematic name:

quinone:selenite oxidoreductase

Comments:

The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Mesobacillus selenatarsenatis, is a membrane anchored type I molybdoenzyme. The enzyme is a complex comprising three heterologous subunits that contains a guanylyl molybdenum cofactor and multiple iron-sulfur clusters. The enzyme receives electrons directly from the membrane quinol pool and reduces selenate to selenite.
