Catalyzes the oxidation of sulfite to sulfate, the terminal reaction in the oxidative degradation of sulfur-containing amino acids.
Previously labelled as SUOX.
Sulfite oxidase also known as SUOX has a molecular mass of approximately 57 kDa and plays a critical role in the conversion of sulfite to sulfate. This enzyme is located in the mitochondria of cells across various tissues but is prominently expressed in the liver and kidney. Its activity depends on molybdenum and heme cofactors rendering it an important player in cellular redox reactions.
Sulfite oxidase acts in the detoxification process of sulfur-containing amino acids. It functions as a monomer and ensures that the potentially harmful intermediate sulfite is efficiently converted to the harmless end product sulfate which can then be excreted. This detoxification is important for cellular health and prevents accumulation of sulfite which could lead to oxidative damage.
Sulfite oxidase plays an important part in two major metabolic processes: the sulfur amino acid detoxification pathway and the metabolic pathway of the degradation of branched-chain amino acids. It works together with cytochrome c in the electron transport chain to facilitate electron transfer. Sulfite oxidase’s function ensures proper catabolism of amino acids and assists in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
Sulfite oxidase deficiency can cause severe neurological impairment and developmental delay often linked to sulfite oxidase deficiency disorder itself. This genetic disorder results from mutations in the SUOX gene disrupting proper enzyme function. Associations have also been highlighted with neurological conditions where oxidative stress plays a part implicating this enzyme’s failure to properly regulate sulfite levels. Additionally its interactions with the molybdenum cofactor highlight connections to molybdenum cofactor deficiency further illustrating its importance in human health.
