The titration of rhodanese with substrates [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1974
The transfer of sulfur catalyzed by rhodanese (EC 2.8.1 .l .) is thought to proceed through a double displacement mechanism where the enzyme is first charged with the donor sulfur and then discharged by the acceptor [ 1 ] . Earlier workers have reported that the enzyme accepts from 1 to 1.9 atoms of sulfur per mole of enzyme of mol. wt. of 37 000 (2-4).

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 ...

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 ...

The isolation of rumen enterococci strains along with high potential utilizing cyanide

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cyanogenic glycosides in forage species and the possibility of cyanide (CN) poisoning can have undesirable effects on ruminants. The literature estimates that unknown rumen bacteria with rhodanese activity are key factors in the animal detoxification of ...

Is Development of High-Grade Gliomas Sulfur-Dependent?

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
We characterized γ-cystathionase, rhodanese and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase activities in various regions of human brain (the cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum and subcortical nuclei) and human gliomas with II to IV grade ...

The Mechanisms of Thiosulfate Toxicity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Elemental sulfur and sulfite have been used to inhibit the growth of yeasts, but thiosulfate has not been reported to be toxic to yeasts. We observed that thiosulfate was more inhibitory than sulfite to Saccharomyces cerevisiae growing in a common yeast ...

Effects of Alium cepa Linn on rhodanese activities and half-life of cyanide in the blood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rhodanese is the major detoxifying enzyme for cyanide and requires sulphur for its action. Allium cepa (Onion) is rich in organosulphur which may serve as an antidote for cyanide poisoning by supplying sulphur to the enzyme rhodanese.

Possible Roles of Plant Sulfurtransferases in Detoxification of Cyanide, Reactive Oxygen Species, Selected Heavy Metals and Arsenate

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
Plants and animals have evolved various potential mechanisms to surmount the adverse effects of heavy metal toxicity. Plants possess low molecular weight compounds containing sulfhydryl groups (-SH) that actively react with toxic metals.
