TST - thiosulfate sulfurtransferase Gene
Also Known as RDS
Species: Homo sapiens
About TST
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 295 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in colon (RPKM 83.2), liver (RPKM 73.2) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This is one of two neighboring genes encoding similar proteins that each contain two rhodanese domains. The encoded protein is localized to the mitochondria and catalyzes the conversion of thiosulfate and cyanide to thiocyanate and sulfite. In addition, the protein interacts with 5S ribosomal RNA and facilitates its import into the mitochondria. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
