FunFam 24: Molybdenum cofactor synthesis protein cinnamon

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Molybdopterin molybdotransferase. [EC: 2.10.1.1]
Adenylyl-molybdopterin + molybdate = molybdenum cofactor + AMP.
  • Catalyzes the insertion of molybdenum into the ene-dithiol group of molybdopterin.
  • In eukaryotes this reaction is catalyzed by the N-terminal domain of a fusion protein whose C-terminal domain catalyzes EC 2.7.7.75.
1 P39205
Molybdopterin adenylyltransferase. [EC: 2.7.7.75]
ATP + molybdopterin = diphosphate + adenylyl-molybdopterin.
  • Catalyzes the activation of molybdopterin for molybdenum insertion.
  • In eukaryotes, this reaction is catalyzed by the C-terminal domain of a fusion protein that also includes molybdopterin molybdotransferase (EC 2.10.1.1).
  • The reaction requires a divalent cation such as Mg(2+) or Mn(2+).
  • Catalyzes the activation of molybdopterin for molybdenum insertion.
  • In eukaryotes, this reaction is catalyzed by the C-terminal domain of a fusion protein that also includes EC 2.10.1.1.
  • Formerly EC 2.7.7.n5.
