The Rhodanese PspE Converts Thiosulfate to Cellular Sulfane Sulfur in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and its oxidation product zero-valent sulfur (S0) play important roles in animals, plants, and bacteria. Inside cells, S0 exists in various forms, including polysulfide and persulfide, which are collectively referred to as sulfane ...

Involvement of the Azotobacter vinelandii rhodanese-like protein RhdA in the glutathione regeneration pathway. [PDF]
The phenotypic features of the Azotobacter vinelandii RhdA mutant MV474 (in which the rhdA gene was deleted) indicated that defects in antioxidant systems in this organism were related to the expression of the tandem-domain rhodanese RhdA.

Elucidation of short linear motif-based interactions of the MIT and rhodanese domains of the ubiquitin-specific protease 8 [PDF]
Ubiquitin-specific protease 8 (USP8) is a deubiquitinating enzyme with essential functions in protein trafficking and stability. It is a multidomain protein, with an N-terminal MIT (microtubule interacting and trafficking) domain, followed by a non ...

Some Molecular Properties of Rhodanese
Abstract Fluorescence studies of crystalline bovine liver rhodanese indicate that the reactive sulfhydryl group is in a region which can participate in hydrophobic (apolar) interactions. Fluorescence polarization studies confirm that rhodanese exists in a mobile monomer-dimer equilibrium.
