Résumé

Tetrathionate hydrolase (TTH) is a unique enzyme found in acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of tetrathionate to thiosulfate, elemental sulfur, and sulfate. It is also involved in dissimilatory sulfur oxidation metabolism, the S
