“…Recent modeling studies have attempted to describe these relationships under all environmental conditions and as a consequence of the inherent enzymatic steps, each of which may express an isotope fractionation (Bradley et al, 2011; Wing and Halevy, 2014; Bradley et al, 2016; Wenk et al, 2017). A few experimental studies have examined the potential role of intermediate S species on fractionation on net S isotopic fractionation (Smock et al, 1998; Leavitt et al, 2014; Bertran et al, 2018b), as have some model studies (Rees, 1973; Brunner and Bernasconi, 2005; Farquhar et al, 2007; Johnston et al, 2007; Turchyn et al, 2010; Brunner et al, 2012; Bertran et al, 2018a). Other studies have examined fractionation imposed by the individual enzymes, such as DsrAB (Leavitt et al, 2015) or AprAB (Sim et al, 2019) or highlighted the importance of material fluxes of sulfur through the most up-to-date MSR metabolic network (Bradley et al, 2016).…”
