Name

intracellular sulfur oxidation

Type

SYSTEM

Description

This system, usually associated with the dissimatory sulfite reductase (dsr) locus, includes proteins DsrE, DsrF, DshH, and DsrC, which are small, soluble proteins required for the oxidation of intracellular sulfur.

JCVI Role

Sulfur metabolism

Parent Property
