Observations on the Rhodanese Activity of Desulfotomaculum nigrificans

Carolyn P Burton 1, J M Akagi 1
PMCID: PMC246928  PMID: 5563874

Abstract

Rhodanese activity, partially purified from Desulfotomaculum nigrificans, was shown to reside in a protein fraction separate from thiosulfate reductase.
