Application

Rhodanese (RHOD) is an enzyme that converts cyanide to thiocyanate. RHOD may be useful in ulcerative colitis (UC) research as it has been shown to have detoxifying properties in the colon . Rhodanese is used to study sulfur energy metabolism .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Rhodanese (RHOD) is the principal enzyme involved in hydrogen sulphide (H2S) detoxication in the colonic luman .

Other Notes

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of cyanide to thiocyanate per min at pH 8.6 at 25°C.
