2.8.1.3 |
| Accepted name: |
thiosulfate—thiol sulfurtransferase |
| Reaction: |
thiosulfate + 2 glutathione = sulfite + glutathione disulfide + sulfide |
| Other name(s): |
glutathione-dependent thiosulfate reductase; sulfane reductase; sulfane sulfurtransferase |
| Systematic name: |
thiosulfate:thiol sulfurtransferase |
| Comments: |
The primary product is glutathione hydrodisulfide, which reacts with glutathione to give glutathione disulfide and sulfide. L-Cysteine can also act as acceptor. |
