Flavocytochrome c sulfide dehydrogenase, also known as Sulfide-cytochrome-c reductase (flavocytochrome c) (EC 1.8.2.3), is an enzyme with systematic name hydrogen-sulfide:flavocytochrome c oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4][5][6] It is found in sulfur-oxidising bacteria such as the purple phototrophic bacteria Allochromatium vinosum.[4][7] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

hydrogen sulfide + 2 ferricytochrome c sulfur + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+

These enzymes are heterodimers of a flavoprotein (fccB Q06530) and a diheme cytochrome (fccA; Q06529) that carry out hydrogen sulfide-dependent cytochrome C reduction. The diheme cytochrome folds into two domains, each of which resembles mitochondrial cytochrome c, with the two haem groups bound to the interior of the subunit. The flavoprotein subunit has a glutathione reductase-like fold consisting of a beta(3,4)-alpha(3) core, and an alpha+beta sandwich. The active site of the flavoprotein subunit contains a catalytically important disulfide bridge located above the pyrimidine portion of the flavin ring. The flavoprotein contains a C-terminal domain required for binding to flavin, and subsequent electron transfer.[4] Electrons are transferred from the flavin to one of the haem groups in the cytochrome. Both FAD and heme C are covalently bound to the protein.
