Description
Thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST, EC 2.8.1.1), also known as Rhodanese, is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of sulfur in several molecular pathways. The TST gene, located on 22q12.3, is conserved in chimpanzee, Rhesus monkey, dog, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, C.elegans, and frog. This is one of two neighboring genes encoding similar proteins that each contain two rhodanese domains. The encoded protein is localized to the mitochondria and catalyzes the conversion of thiosulfate and cyanide to thiocyanate and sulfite. Also, the protein interacts with 5S ribosomal RNA and facilitates its import into the mitochondria. TST is widely expressed in the colon, liver, and other tissues. TST deficiency was shown to be strongly related to the pathophysiology of metabolic diseases including diabetes and obesity
