IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 1.8.4.8

Accepted name: phosphoadenylyl-sulfate reductase (thioredoxin)

Reaction: adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + sulfite + thioredoxin disulfide = 3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + thioredoxin

Glossary and synonyms entries:
3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate = PAPS

Other name(s): PAPS reductase, thioredoxin-dependent; PAPS reductase; thioredoxin:adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate reductase; 3'-phosphoadenylylsulfate reductase; thioredoxin:3'-phospho-adenylylsulfate reductase; phosphoadenosine-phosphosulfate reductase; adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate,sulfite:oxidized-thioredoxin oxidoreductase (3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate-forming)

Systematic name: adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate,sulfite:thioredoxin-disulfide oxidoreductase (3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate-forming)

Comments: specific for PAPS. The enzyme from Escherichia coli will use thioredoxins from other species.
