Increasing plant tolerance to sulfites/SO2 can lead to the development of tolerant crops to biotic and abiotic stresses. Plant sulfite oxidase (SO) is a molybdo-enzyme that oxidizes excess SO2/sulfite into non-toxic sulfate.

Exposure to (bi)sulfite (HSO3–) and sulfite (SO32–) has been shown to induce a wide range of adverse reactions in sensitive individuals. Studies have shown that peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of (bi)sulfite leads to formation of several reactive free ...

The History of Animal and Plant Sulfite Oxidase—A Personal View
Sulfite oxidase is one of five molybdenum-containing enzymes known in eukaryotes where it catalyzes the oxidation of sulfite to sulfate. This review covers the history of sulfite oxidase research starting out with the early years of its discovery as a ...

Sulfite oxidase activity of cytochrome c: Role of hydrogen peroxide
In humans, sulfite is generated endogenously by the metabolism of sulfur containing amino acids such as methionine and cysteine. Sulfite is also formed from exposure to sulfur dioxide, one of the major environmental pollutants.

Sulfite oxidation in Chlorobaculum tepidum
The green sulfur bacterium Chlorobaculum tepidum is proposed to oxidize sulfide and elemental sulfur via sulfite as an obligate intermediate. The sulfite pool is predicted to be contained in the cytoplasm and be oxidized by the concerted action of AprBA,

Some antioxidant compounds have a pro-oxidant effect in the presence of transition metal ions, due to the reduction of Mn+ to M(n-1)+ with simultaneous formation of free radicals, which then promote DNA damage.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Cyclic Sulfite Diesters as Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Donors [PDF]
Although sulfur dioxide (SO2) finds widespread use in the food industry as its hydrated form, sulfite, a number of aspects of SO2 biology remain to be completely understood. Among the tools available for intracellular enhancement of SO2, most suffer from
