Crystal Structure Analysis of the cytochrome b5 domain of human sulfite oxidase
Structural highlights
1mj4 is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
SUOX_HUMAN Defects in SUOX are the cause of isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (ISOD) [MIM:272300; also known as sulfocysteinuria. ISOD is characterized by neurological abnormalities including multicystic leukoencephalopathy with brain atrophy. Patients often suffer from seizures. Often leads to death at an early age.[1][2][3][4][5]
