Arsenate Reductases
|
D053502 |
[A arsenate reductase that can use azurin as a donor-acceptor. It can use a c-type cytochrome or O(2) as donor-acceptor.
, An EC classified subtype with unspecified electron acceptor-donor. Reduced glutaredoxin cannot serve as a reductant for this enzyme. Formerly classified as EC 1.97.1.6
, Oxidoreductases that specifically reduce arsenate ion to arsenite ion. Reduction of arsenate is a critical step for its biotransformation into a form that can be transported by ARSENITE TRANSPORTING ATPASES or complexed by specific sulfhydryl-containing proteins for the purpose of detoxification (METABOLIC DETOXIFICATION, DRUG). Arsenate reductases require reducing equivalents such as GLUTAREDOXIN or AZURIN.
