Biological Properties
General Function Involved in Mo-molybdopterin cofactor biosynthetic process
Specific Function Catalytic subunit of the molybdopterin synthase complex, a complex that catalyzes the conversion of precursor Z into molybdopterin. Acts by mediating the incorporation of 2 sulfur atoms from thiocarboxylated MOCS2A into precursor Z to generate a dithiolene group.
Pathways
  • Folate biosynthesis
  • molybdopterin biosynthesis
  • Sulfur relay system
Reactions
