Adenylyl-sulfate reductase


Adenylyl-sulfate reductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are AMP, sulfite, and an acceptor, whereas its two products are adenylyl sulfate and a reduced acceptor.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on a sulfur group of donors with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is AMP, sulfite:acceptor oxidoreductase . Other names in common use include adenosine phosphosulfate reductase, adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate reductase, APS-reductase, APS reductase, AMP, sulfite: oxidoreductase, and . This enzyme participates in selenoamino acid metabolism and sulfur metabolism. It has 2 cofactors: FAD, and Iron.
