Comments [?]

case <OC:Escherichia> or <OC:Shigella> or <OC:Salmonella>
FUNCTIONMaster enzyme that delivers sulfur to a number of partners involved in Fe-S cluster assembly, tRNA modification or cofactor biosynthesis. Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur and selenium atoms from cysteine and selenocysteine to produce alanine. Functions as a sulfur delivery protein for Fe-S cluster synthesis onto IscU, an Fe-S scaffold assembly protein, as well as other S acceptor proteins. Also functions as a selenium delivery protein in the pathway for the biosynthesis of selenophosphate.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=[sulfur carrier]-H + L-cysteine = [sulfur carrier]-SH + L- alanine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:43892, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:14737, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:14739, ChEBI:CHEBI:29917, ChEBI:CHEBI:35235, ChEBI:CHEBI:57972, ChEBI:CHEBI:64428; EC=2.8.1.7;
COFACTOR Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326;
PATHWAYCofactor biosynthesis; iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis.
SUBUNITHomodimer. Forms a heterotetramer with IscU, interacts with other sulfur acceptors.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
case <OC:Archaea>
MISCELLANEOUSIn Archaea the pyridoxal phosphate cofactor is not covalently bound to Lys but ligated by other amino acids.
end case
SIMILARITYBelongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. NifS/IscS subfamily.
