case <OC:Fungi>
FUNCTIONActs as a sulfur carrier required for molybdopterin biosynthesis. Component of the molybdopterin synthase complex that catalyzes the conversion of precursor Z into molybdopterin by mediating the incorporation of 2 sulfur atoms into precursor Z to generate a dithiolene group. In the complex, serves as sulfur donor by being thiocarboxylated (-COSH) at its C-terminus by @gn(UBA4). After interaction with MOCS2B, the sulfur is then transferred to precursor Z to form molybdopterin.
else case <OC:Metazoa> or <OC:Viridiplantae>

PATHWAYCofactor biosynthesis; molybdopterin biosynthesis.
SUBUNITHeterotetramer; composed of 2 small (MOCS2A) and 2 large (MOCS2B) subunits.
case <OC:Vertebrata>
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm, cytosol.
else
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
end case
case <OC:Fungi>
PTMC-terminal thiocarboxylation occurs in 2 steps, it is first acyl- adenylated (-COAMP) via the hesA/moeB/thiF part of @gn(UBA4), then thiocarboxylated (-COSH) via the rhodanese domain of @gn(UBA4).

case <OC:Mammalia>
MISCELLANEOUSThis protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the large subunit (MOCS2B) from an overlapping reading frame.
else case <OC:Vertebrata> or <OC:Insecta>
MISCELLANEOUSThis protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the large subunit (MOCS2B).
end case
SIMILARITYBelongs to the MoaD family. MOCS2A subfamily.
