2.9.1.1 | L-seryl-tRNASec + selenophosphate = L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASec + phosphate |
the formyl group of pyridoxal phosphate forms a Schiff base with the alpha-amino group of L-Ser with the subsequent 2,3-elimination of a water molecule and the generation of an aminoacrylyl-tRNASecUCA intermediate |
