Requiring thioredoxin as an electron donor, phosphoadenosine phosphosulphate reductase catalyzes the reduction of 3'-phosphoadenylylsulphate (PAPS) to sulphite and phospho-adenosine-phosphate (PAP). Found in enterobacteria, cyanobacteria, and yeast, PAPS reductase is related to a group of plant (IPR004508) and bacterial (IPR011798) enzymes preferring 5'-adenylylsulphate (APS) over PAPS as a substrate for reduction to sulphite.
