sulfite reductase (NADPH)  M-CSA #398

The E. coli enzyme sulphite reductase, SiR, is a multimeric hemoflavoprotein that catalyses the six-electron reduction of sulphite (SO3-) to sulphide (HS-) and of nitrite (NO2-) to ammonia (NH4+) using electrons from NADPH. The complex consists of two types of subunit: the flavoprotein SiRFP and the hemoprotein SiRHP. Recent studies have suggested that the complex contains 8 subunits of SiRFP and 8 of SiRHP, rather than 8 of SiRFP and 4 of SiRHP as previously assumed. Electrons are transferred from NADPH to FAD in SiRFP and then to FMN in SiRFP. Next they are transferred to a 4Fe4S centre in SiRHP, which is linked to a sirohaem via a common cysteine ligand. Electrons are ultimately transferred to the substrate that is coordinated to the sirohaem iron. This entry deals only with the SiRHP component of the complex.
