4.4.1.24 |
Accepted name: |
(2R)-sulfolactate sulfo-lyase |
Reaction: |
(2R)-3-sulfolactate = pyruvate + hydrogensulfite |
Other name(s): |
Suy; SuyAB; 3-sulfolactate bisulfite-lyase; sulfolactate sulfo-lyase (ambigious); (2R)-3-sulfolactate bisulfite-lyase (pyruvate-forming) |
Systematic name: |
(2R)-3-sulfolactate hydrogensulfite-lyase (pyruvate-forming) |
Comments: |
Requires iron(II). This inducible enzyme participates in cysteate degradation by the bacterium Paracoccus pantotrophus NKNCYSA and in 3-sulfolactate degradation by the bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens. The enzyme is specific for the (R) isomer of its substrate. |
