The molybdenum cofactor (Moco) containing sulfite oxidase (SO) from, Arabidopsis thaliana has recently been identified and biochemically, characterized. The enzyme is found in peroxisomes and believed to detoxify, excess sulfite that is produced during sulfur assimilation, or due to air, pollution. Plant SO (PSO) is homodimeric and homologous to animal SO, but, contains only a single Moco domain without an additional redox center., Here, we present the first crystal structure of a plant Moco enzyme, the, apo-state of Arabidopsis SO at 2.6 A resolution. The overall fold and, coordination of the Moco are similar to chicken SO (CSO). Comparisons of, conserved surface residues and the charge distribution in PSO and CSO, reveal major differences near the entrance to both active sites .. | The molybdenum cofactor (Moco) containing sulfite oxidase (SO) from, Arabidopsis thaliana has recently been identified and biochemically, characterized.

Comparisons of, conserved surface residues and the charge distribution in PSO and CSO, reveal major differences near the entrance to both active sites reflecting, different electron acceptors. Arg374 has been identified as an important, substrate binding residue due to its conformational change when compared, to the sulfate bound structure of CSO. | ||
