Nitrite/Sulfite reductase ferredoxin-like half domain
Sulfite and Nitrite reductases are key to both biosynthetic assimilation of sulfur and nitrogen and dissimilation of oxidised anions for energy transduction [1]. Two copies of this repeat are found in Nitrite and Sulfite reductases and form a single structural domain. [1]. 7569952.

Nitrite and sulphite reductase 4Fe-4S domain
Sulphite and nitrite reductases are vital in the biosynthetic assimilation of sulphur and nitrogen, respectfully. They are also both important for the dissimilation of oxidised anions for energy transduction. [1]. 7569952.

NADPH-dependent assimilatory sulfite reductase hemoprotein subunit
NADPH dependent; with the alpha subunit (a flavoprotein) catalyzes the reduction of sulfite to sulfide
assimilatory sulfite reductase (NADPH) hemoprotein subunit
Sulfite reductase (NADPH) catalyzes a six electron reduction of sulfite to sulfide in prokaryotic organisms. It is a complex oligomeric enzyme composed of two different peptides with a subunit composition of alpha(8)-beta(4) [1]. The alpha component, encoded by cysJ, is a flavoprotein containing both FMN and FAD, while the beta component, encoded by cysI, is a siroheme, iron-sulfur protein [1]. In Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli, both the alpha and beta subunits of sulfite reductase are located in a unidirectional gene cluster along with phosphoadenosine phosphosulfate reductase, which catalyzes a two step reduction of PAPS to give free sulfite [2]. In cyanobacteria and plant species, sulfite reductase ferredoxin (EC 1.8.7.1) catalyzes the reduction of sulfite to sulfide [3].
