MetaCyc Pathway: sulfolactate degradation II in Phaeobacter inhibens DSM 17395

3-sulfolactate + an oxidized electron carrier→3-sulfopyruvate + a reduced two electron carrier

Sulfopyruvate decarboxylase:
3-sulfopyruvate + H⁺→sulfoacetaldehyde + CO₂ (EC 4.1.1.79)

Sulfoacetaldehyde acetyltransferase (in reverse):
sulfoacetaldehyde + phosphate→acetyl phosphate + sulfite + H⁺ (EC 2.3.3.15)

PGA1_c28820

Phosphate acetyltransferase (in reverse):
acetyl phosphate + coenzyme A→acetyl-CoA + phosphate (EC 2.3.1.8)

PGA1_c28850

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
