General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the enzyme is the sulfur donor for M molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis. The enzyme is able to transfer sulfur to the C-terminal domain of MOCS3, a cytosolic protein involved in molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis and tRNA thiolation Homo sapiens
physiological function the enzyme provides the sulfur for molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis in human cytosol. The enzyme plays a crucial role in the mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis and in the thiomodification of mitochondrial and cytosolic tRNAs Homo sapiens
