Active site peptides of rhodanese

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure, 1970
Abstract The active site cysteinyl peptide isolated from a tryptic digest of rhodanese (thiosulfate:cyanide sulfurtransferase, EC 2.8.1.1) by column chromatography has been found to contain 15 amino acid residues, of which 7 are hydrophobic. The tryptophyl peptides in such digests also appear to consist predominantly of residues which are hydrophobic.

The double domain structure of rhodanese

Journal of Molecular Biology, 1975
A 3 A electron density map of bovine liver rhodanese shows, in conjunction with gel electrophoresis experiments, that rhodanese consists of a single polypeptide chain with molecular weight of 32,000. The map reveals a very clear double domain structure of the molecule. The two domains are of equal size and have very similar conformations.

Occurrence of Rhodanese in a Species of Thiobacillus

Nature, 1958
THE enzyme rhodanese which catalyses the reaction: has been shown to be present in Thiobacillus thiocyanoxidans. Cells of the organism, grown in thiosulphate medium with forced aeration and 2–5 per cent of carbon dioxide added1, were harvested in a de Laval centrifugal separator ...

Cyanide detoxification by recombinant bacterial rhodanese

Chemosphere, 2006
Cyanide is a major environmental pollutant of the chemical and metallurgical industries. Although extremely toxic, cyanide can enzymatically be converted to the less toxic thiocyanate by rhodaneses (thiosulfate:cyanide sulfurtransferases, EC 2.8.1.1). We engineered a genetic system to express high levels of recombinant Pseudomonas aeruginosa rhodanese (

Distribution of rhodanese in plants

The Botanical Magazine Tokyo, 1991
To study the distribution of rhodanese (E.C. 2.8.1.1) in plants, rhodanese activity was assayed on 13 cyanogenic and 12 non-cyanogenic species. All the species tested had the enzyme activity. This phenomenon leads to a hypothesis that the enzyme is generally distributed in plants.

A study of dithiothreitol inactivation of the enzyme rhodanese

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1975
Abstract When air oxidized, partially inactivated rhodanese (EC 2.8.1.1) is treated with dithiothreitol (DTT) to regenerate the reduced essential sulfhydryl group there is an initial reactivation followed by an anomalous slower inactivation. Fully active enzyme shows only inactivation.
