| Comments |
This enzyme differs from EC 1.8.99.2, adenylyl-sulfate reductase (acceptor), in using glutathione as the reductant. Glutathione can be replaced by ¦Ã-glutamylcysteine or dithiothreitol, but not by thioredoxin, glutaredoxin or mercaptoethanol. The enzyme from the mouseear cress, Arabidopsis thaliana, contains a glutaredoxin-like domain. The enzyme is also found in other photosynthetic eukaryotes, e.g., the Madagascar periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus and the hollow green seaweed, Enteromorpha intestinalis. |
