Sulfite oxidase (SO) is a dimeric enzyme, located in the intermembrane space of mitochondria, with each monomer containing a single Mo cofactor and cyt b5-type heme [1]. SO catalyzes the oxidation of sulfite to sulfate as the terminal step in the metabolism of sulfur amino acids and is vital for human health. Inherited mutations in SO result in severe neurological problems, stunted brain growth, and early death [2].

Function: SO catalyzes the terminal reaction in the oxidative degradation of SULFUR AMINO ACIDS with the formation of a sulfate, electrons pass to cytochrom c and are further utilized in respiratory chain.

Sulfite + O2 + H2O --> Sulfate + H2O2

Localization: The level of expression of SO differs in various tissues with main predominant localization in liver, kidney, skeletal muscle, heart, placenta, and brain in humans and liver, kidney, heart, brain, and lung in rats [3].

Deficiency: SO is vital for metabolic pathways of sulfur amino acids (cysteine and methionine). Complete lack of this enzyme, typically caused by gene mutation, leads to lethal disease called sulfite oxidase deficiency characterized by neurological abnormalities with brain atrophy.

I am very grateful for having an opportunity to be present at 10th MiPschool and the MITOEAGLE workshop in Obergurgl.

For me as a beginner it was great chance to learn a lot about mitochondrial topic, especially those terminology sessions were very enriching. Last but not least, I have met a lot of wonderful people, who are inspiriting and I was my greatest pleasure to spend this time with them.
