The sulfurtransferases
Abstract
The sulfurtransferases are a group of proteins that catalyze the formation, interconversion and reactions of compounds containing sulfane sulfur atoms. Serum albumin has properties that implicate it as a major potential sulfur carrier/transferase. The relevance of the sulfane pool system as a whole to cyanide detoxication appears clear. The mechanisms of action of the various components at the molecular level are still under investigation.
