additional information | the MOCS3 rhodanese-like domain, MOCS3-RLD, is also capable to catalyze the transfer of sulfur from thiosulfate to cyanide. Recombinant MOCS3 can activate MOCS2A but not endogenous Escherichia coli MoaD. MOCS3 exhibits sulfurtransferase activity only with thiosulfate, clearly identifying the enzyme as thiosulfate sulfurtransferase. The thiosulfate sulfurtransferase activity of the separated MOCS3-RLD protein is comparable to that of intact MOCS3 | Homo sapiens | ? | - |

malfunction | mutation of the putative persulfide-forming active-site cysteine residue C412 abolishes the sulfurtransferase activity of MOCS3-RLD completely | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | the MOCS3 protein is believed to catalyze both the adenylation and the subsequent generation of a thiocarboxylate group at the C terminus of the smaller subunit of molybdopterin (MPT) synthase, the C-terminal segment of MOCS3 displays similarities to the sulfurtransferase rhodanese. The MOCS3 rhodanese-like domain provides the sulfur for the thiocarboxylation of MOCS2A, the small MPT synthase subunit in humans. C412 is important for catalysis. The MoeB domain of MOCS3 is not involved in sulfur transfer in vitro | Homo sapiens |
