Comments [?]

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.
Catalytic activity RHEA:26333: 2 [molybdopterin-synthase sulfur-carrier protein]-C-terminal Gly-NH-CH2-C(O)SH + cyclic pyranopterin phosphate + H2O = 2 [molybdopterin-synthase sulfur-carrier protein]-C-terminal Gly-Gly + 4 H(+) + molybdopterin
EC 2.8.1.12
Pathway Cofactor biosynthesis; molybdopterin biosynthesis.
Subunit Heterotetramer; composed of 2 small (MOCS2A) and 2 large (MOCS2B) subunits.
case <OC:Vertebrata>
Subcellular location Cytoplasm, cytosol.
else
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
end case
case <OC:Mammalia>
Miscellaneous This protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the small subunit (MOCS2A) from an overlapping reading frame.
else case <OC:Vertebrata> or <OC:Insecta>
Miscellaneous This protein is produced by a bicistronic gene which also produces the large subunit (MOCS2A).
end case
Similarity Belongs to the MoaE family. MOCS2B subfamily.
