Trithionate hydrolase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a trithionate hydrolase (EC 3.12.1.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

trithionate + H₂O thiosulfate + sulfate + 2 H⁺

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are trithionate and H₂O, whereas its 3 products are thiosulfate, sulfate, and H⁺.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on sulfur-sulfur bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is trithionate thiosulfohydrolase. This enzyme participates in sulfur metabolism.
