Taurine dioxygenase (TauD) is a Fe(II) and -ketoglutaric acid-dependent dioxygenase，which enables E.coli to use taurine as a sulfur source. The oligomeric state of the enzyme from E.coli is reported both as a dimer and tetramer. It contains a 2-His，1- carboxylate facial triad，which is present in most members of the family of Fe(II)⁄ -KG-dependent enzymes. TauD catalyzes the conversion of the amino acid taurine (2-aminoethane-1-sulfonic acid) to sulfite and aminoacetaldehyde.
