Structural basis of sulfide production in dissimilatory sulfur metabolism

2026-08-25

Abstract excerpt

The membrane-bound DsrMK(JOP) complex is central to dissimilatory sulfur metabolism, including in sulfate-reducing microbes (SRM), a group that plays important roles in shaping planetary and human health. Despite this global importance, the mechanism of sulfide production and its links to energy conservation remain unclear. Here, we present high-resolution cryo-EM structures of DsrMKJOP from Archaeoglobus fulgidus...
