Source-derived summary

In enzymology, dibenzothiophene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.1.60) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The two substrates of this enzyme are cis-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrodibenzothiophene and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 1,2-dihydroxydibenzothiophene, reduced NADH, and a proton.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is cis-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrodibenzothiophene:NAD+ oxidoreductase.

Editorial summary

“Dibenzothiophene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase” enters the record as class of enzymes. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Dibenzothiophene, dihydrodiol and dehydrogenase can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current 71-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Dibenzothiophene, dihydrodiol and dehydrogenase.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Dibenzothiophene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Dibenzothiophene, dihydrodiol and dehydrogenase provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3133337. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
