Sulfur Metabolism Service

Online Inquiry

Sulfur is an essential element in mammalian and occurs in various oxidation states ranging from sulfate to sulfide. Sulfate reduction can occur in both the energy producing dissimilatory pathway and the energy consuming assimilatory pathway. In dissimilatory pathway sulfate (or sulfur) is the terminal electron acceptor of the respiratory chain producing large quantities of inorganic sulfide. In contrast, the assimilatory pathway produces reduced sulfur compounds for the biosynthesis of S-containing amino acids and does not lead to direct excretion of sulfide. What is important, both pathways begin from the activation of sulfate by reaction with ATP to form adenylyl sulfate (APS). Therefore, abnormal sulfur metabolism could induce ATP depletion causing the energy metabolism disorder. It would not be surprising that sulfur metabolism play important roles in various human diseases like sulfite oxidase deficiency and chondrodysplasia with joint dislocations. In Creative Proteomics, we provide reliable, fast and cost-effective sulfur metabolism analysis service to speed up your research aims ranging from diseases diagnosis to gaining new insights in disease mechanism or treatment.
