Rhodanese-Fold Containing Proteins in Humans: Not Just Key Players in Sulfur Trafficking

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
The Rhodanese-fold is a ubiquitous structural domain present in various protein subfamilies associated with different physiological functions or pathophysiological conditions in humans. Proteins harboring a Rhodanese domain are diverse in terms of domain

The Rhodanese PspE Converts Thiosulfate to Cellular Sulfane Sulfur in Escherichia coli

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
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 ...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rhodanese RDL2 Uses the Arg Residue of the Active-Site Loop for Thiosulfate Decomposition

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Persulfide, polysulfide and thiosulfate are examples of sulfane sulfur containing chemicals that play multiple functions in biological systems. Rhodaneses are widely present in all three kingdoms of life, which catalyze sulfur transfer among these ...

Effect of Rhodanese Enzyme Addition on Rumen Fermentation, Cyanide Concentration, and Feed Utilization in Beef Cattle Receiving Various Levels of Fresh Cassava Root

open access: yesFermentation, 2022
Fresh cassava root is not recommended for animal feeding due to high quantities of hydrocyanic acid (HCN), which produces symptoms of poisoning. The purpose of this study was to find out how a rhodanese enzyme addition affects rumen fermentation, HCN ...

Involvement of the Azotobacter vinelandii rhodanese-like protein RhdA in the glutathione regeneration pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
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.

Novel Characterization of Antioxidant Enzyme, 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase-Knockout Mice: Overexpression of the Evolutionarily-Related Enzyme Rhodanese

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2019
The antioxidant enzyme, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MST, EC 2.8.1.2) is localized in the cytosol and mitochondria, while the evolutionarily-related enzyme, rhodanese (thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, TST, EC 2.8.1.1) is localized in the ...

Structure of TBC1D23 N-terminus reveals a novel role for rhodanese domain.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
Members of the Tre2-Bub2-Cdc16 (TBC) family often function to regulate membrane trafficking and to control signaling transductions pathways. As a member of the TBC family, TBC1D23 is critical for endosome-to-Golgi cargo trafficking by serving as a bridge
