Sulfite oxidase is a crucial enzyme that is responsible for oxidizing harmful sulfites to sulfates. The enzyme is found in the mitochondria of the cell and mostly can be found in hearts, kidneys, and livers. However, sulfite oxidase can also be found in the brain, skeletal muscle, blood and spleen. Sulfite oxidase is a homodimer; it is a chemical entity consisting of two identical subunits called monomers, which are linked together via intramolecular forces. The enzyme contains two identical subunits. Each subunit has two domains: iron and molybdenum that are linked together by a loop composed of amino acids.
