“…1), a reaction that is catalysed by sulphate adenylyl transferase (Sat). Sat is a widespread enzyme present not only in SRP but also in SOB and in all organisms that reduce sulphate for assimilation, including plants, algae, yeasts, fungi and many bacteria (Koprivova & Kopriva, 2014;Leustek, Martin, Bick, & Davies, 2000). Sat from these different organisms is remarkably similar, with virtually identical substrate-binding sites, indicating that this is an ancient enzyme that arose prior to the divergence of the three domains of life (Parey, Demmer, et al, 2013;Parey, Fritz, et al, 2013).…”
