FUNCTIONInvolved in the post-transcriptional modification of the uridine at the wobble position (U34) of tRNA(Lys), tRNA(Glu) and tRNA(Gln). Catalyzes the conversion of 2-thiouridine (S2U-RNA) to 2- selenouridine (Se2U-RNA). Acts in a two-step process involving geranylation of 2-thiouridine (S2U) to S-geranyl-2-thiouridine (geS2U) and subsequent selenation of the latter derivative to 2-selenouridine (Se2U) in the tRNA chain.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=(2E)-geranyl diphosphate + 5-methylaminomethyl-2- thiouridine(34) in tRNA + H(+) + H2O + selenophosphate = (2E)- thiogeraniol + 5-methylaminomethyl-2-selenouridine(34) in tRNA + diphosphate + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:42716, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10195, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10196, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16144, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:58057, ChEBI:CHEBI:74455, ChEBI:CHEBI:82743, ChEBI:CHEBI:143703; EC=2.9.1.3; PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:42717;
