| Description | Cysteine desulphuration protein SufE participates in cysteine desulphuration mediated by SufS. Cysteine desulphuration mobilizes sulphur from L-cysteine to yield L-alanine and constitutes an essential step in sulphur metabolism for biosynthesis of a variety of sulphur-containing biomolecules. SufE functions as a sulphur acceptor for sufS, by mediating the direct transfer of the sulphur atom from the S-sulphanylcysteine of sufS, an intermediate product of cysteine desulphuration process [ , , ]. |
