Molybdopterin synthase

id: molybdopterin-synthase-298-3221555
title: Molybdopterin synthase
text: Molybdopterin synthase is an enzyme required to synthesize molybdopterin (MPT) from precursor Z. Molydopterin is subsequently complexed with molybdenum to form molybdenum cofactor (MoCo). MPT synthase catalyses the following chemical reaction: Molybdopterin synthase is heterodimeric and coded for by the MOCS2 gene. Genetic deficiencies of enzymes such as MPT synthase, which are involved in MoCo biosynthesis, lead to MoCo deficiency, a rare disease that results in severe neurological abnormalitie
