The role of glutamate oxaloacetate transaminases in sulfite biosynthesis and H2S metabolism
Molybdenum cofactor deficiency and isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency are two rare genetic disorders that are caused by impairment of the mitochondrial enzyme sulfite oxidase.

Molecular Basis of Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency from the Structure of Sulfite Oxidase [PDF]
The molybdenum-containing enzyme sulfite oxidase catalyzes the conversion of sulfite to sulfate, the terminal step in the oxidative degradation of cysteine and methionine. Deficiency of this enzyme in humans usually leads to major neurological abnormalities and early death.

Sulfite oxidase deficiency in a newborn
Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive disease with a very poor prognosis. This condition usually presents in the neonatal period and is mainly characterized by neurological abnormalities, including refractory seizures ...

Stable clinical course in three siblings with late-onset isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency: a case series and literature review [PDF]
Background Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (ISOD) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of sulfite oxidase, which is encoded by the sulfite oxidase gene (SUOX).

The sulfite oxidase Shopper controls neuronal activity by regulating glutamate homeostasis in Drosophila ensheathing glia [PDF]
In Drosophila, ensheathing glia encase the neuropil but their function is not well understood. Here the authors show a surprising role of ensheathing glia in regulating glutamate homeostasis and locomotion which is controlled by the sulfite oxidase ...

Sulfite Oxidase Activity Is Essential for Normal Sulfur, Nitrogen and Carbon Metabolism in Tomato Leaves [PDF]
Plant sulfite oxidase [SO; E.C.1.8.3.1] has been shown to be a key player in protecting plants against exogenous toxic sulfite. Recently we showed that SO activity is essential to cope with rising dark-induced endogenous sulfite levels in tomato plants ...

Overexpression of the Maize Sulfite Oxidase Increases Sulfate and GSH Levels and Enhances Drought Tolerance in Transgenic Tobacco [PDF]
Sulfite oxidase (SO) plays a pivotal role in sulfite metabolism. In our previous study, sulfite-oxidizing function of the SO from Zea mays (ZmSO) was characterized. To date, the knowledge of ZmSO’s involvement in abiotic stress response is scarce.

Severe isolated sulfide oxidase deficiency with a novel mutation
Background. Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (ISOD), caused by mutations in SUOX gene, is an autosomal recessive disease manifesting with early onset seizures, developmental delay, microcephaly, and spasticity.

Overexpression of a maize sulfite oxidase gene in tobacco enhances tolerance to sulfite stress via sulfite oxidation and CAT-mediated H2O2 scavenging. [PDF]
Sulfite oxidase (SO) plays an important role in sulfite metabolism. To date, the molecular mechanisms of sulfite metabolism in plants are largely unknown.
