Sulfurtransferases and Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Expression in Different Human Leukemia Cell Lines [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2022 The studies concerned the expression of sulfurtransferases and cystathionine beta-synthase in six human leukemia cell lines: B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-B-ALL (REH cells), T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-T-ALL (DND-41 and MOLT-4 cells), acute

Cytoplasmic sulfurtransferases in the purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum: evidence for sulfur transfer from DsrEFH to DsrC. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 While the importance of sulfur transfer reactions is well established for a number of biosynthetic pathways, evidence has only started to emerge that sulfurtransferases may also be major players in sulfur-based microbial energy metabolism.

The putative thiosulfate sulfurtransferases PspE and GlpE contribute to virulence of Salmonella Typhimurium in the mouse model of systemic disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The phage-shock protein PspE and GlpE of the glycerol 3-phosphate regulon of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium are predicted to belong to the class of thiosulfate sulfurtransferases, enzymes that traffic sulfur between molecules.

The Human Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase TUM1 Is Involved in Moco Biosynthesis, Cytosolic tRNA Thiolation and Cellular Bioenergetics in Human Embryonic Kidney Cells [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2023 Sulfur is an important element that is incorporated into many biomolecules in humans. The incorporation and transfer of sulfur into biomolecules is, however, facilitated by a series of different sulfurtransferases.
