Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
Anabaena sulfur acceptor E in the presence of the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein, the catalytic efficiency increases 10fold. For sulfur mobilization, the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein partners only SufS and not other cysteine desulfurases from Nostoc sp. Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 = FACHB-418

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism SufS protein physically interacts with the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein. In the presence of the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein, the catalytic efficiency increases 10fold. For sulfur mobilization, the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein partners only SufS and not other cysteine desulfurases from Nostoc sp. The conserved cysteine of the SufS or the Anabaena sulfur acceptor E protein is essential for activity but not for their physical association Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 = FACHB-418
physiological function overexpression of the SufS protein causes reduced formation of reactive oxygen species on exposure to hydrogen peroxide Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 = FACHB-418
