Carbonyl sulfide (COS) has been investigated as a rapid-equilibrium inhibitor of CO oxidation
by the CO dehydrogenase purified from Rhodospirillum rubrum. The kinetic evidence suggests that the
inhibition by COS is largely competitive versus CO (Ki = 2.3 pM) and uncompetitive versus methylviologen
as electron acceptor (Ki = 15.8 pM)....
Understanding the processes that control the terrestrial exchange of carbon is critical for
assessing atmospheric CO₂ budgets. Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is taken up by vegetation during
photosynthesis following a pathway that mirrors CO₂ but has a small or nonexistent emission component,
providing a possible tracer for gross primary production. Field...
