Bacterial Isothiocyanate Biosynthesis by Rhodanese‐Catalyzed Sulfur Transfer onto Isonitriles
ChemBioChem, 2023 Natural products bearing isothiocyanate (ITC) groups are an important group of specialized metabolites that play various roles in health, nutrition, and ecology. Whereas ITC biosynthesis via glucosinolates in plants has been studied in detail, there is a

Sulfur Administration in Fe–S Cluster Homeostasis
Antioxidants, 2021 Mitochondria are the key organelles of Fe–S cluster synthesis. They contain the enzyme cysteine desulfurase, a scaffold protein, iron and electron donors, and specific chaperons all required for the formation of Fe–S clusters.

Characterization of Rhodanese Extracted from Synodontis schall Liver
EAS Journal of Nutrition and Food Sciences, 2022 Rhodanese, a cyanide detoxifying enzyme was extracted from the liver of Synodontis schall and its characteristics investigated. Crude enzyme preparation was prepared and the enzyme was assayed by measuring the activity of rhodanese in RU min-1 mg-1.

The titration of rhodanese with substrates [PDF]
FEBS 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).
