Adenylyisulfate reductases enzymes of sulfur metabolism which reduce either phosphoadenylylsul-fate (APS reductase) or adenylylsulfate. Adenylylsul-fate reductase (EC 1.8.99.2) is identical with one component of the sulfate reductase in sulfate assimilation, since adenylylsulfate is the donor of the sulfate group. Properties of some of these reductases are shown in the Table. In every case, the reductase is a complex of 3 components, an adenylylsulfate transferase (see Sulfate assimilation, Fig.1), a low-molecular-mass carrier, and the actual adenylylsulfate reductase. Phos-phoadenylylsulfate reductase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires NADPH, and has been partly purified.
