Molybdenum Cofactor Synthesis 2 Recombinant Protein | MOCS2 recombinant protein
Recombinant Human Molybdenum Cofactor Synthesis 2
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Introduction: Molybdenum Cofactor Synthesis 2 (MOCS2) is a heterotetrameric synthase comprised of 2 small (MOCS2A) and 2 large (MOCS2B) subunits. Both the large and small subunits of molybdopterin synthase are encoded from the MOCS2 gene by overlapping open reading frames. MOCS2 operates in the second step of the molybdenum cofactor or molybdopterin (MPT) synthesis. MOCS2 catalyzes the formation of MPT from precursor Z by incorporating a dithiolene functional group.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Eukaryotic molybdoenzymes use a unique molybdenum cofactor (MoCo) consisting of a pterin, termed molybdopterin, and the catalytically active metal molybdenum. MoCo is synthesized from precursor Z by the heterodimeric enzyme molybdopterin synthase. The large and small subunits of molybdopterin synthase are both encoded from this gene by overlapping open reading frames. The proteins were initially thought to be encoded from a bicistronic transcript. They are now thought to be encoded from monocistronic transcripts. Alternatively spliced transcripts have been found for this locus that encode the large and small subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
MOCS2 iso2: 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. Defects in MOCS2 are the cause of molybdenum cofactor deficiency type B (MOCOD type B). MOCOD type B is an autosomal recessive disease which leads to the pleiotropic loss of all molybdoenzyme activities and is characterized by severe neurological damage, neonatal seizures and early childhood death. Belongs to the MoaE family. MOCS2B subfamily.
