L-seryl-tRNASec + selenophosphate the phosphate loop accommodates the gamma-phosphate moiety of O-phospho-L-seryltRNA [Ser]Sec and, after phosphate elimination, binds selenophosphate to initiate attack on the proposed aminoacrylyltRNA [Ser]Sec intermediate. Binding of phosphate triggers disorder-order transition in an active site loop Mus musculus L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASec + phosphate

Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
More two SecS monomers interact intimately and together build up two identical active sites around PLP in a Schiff-base linkage with Lys284. Two SecS dimers further associate to form a homotetramer. The N-terminus, which mediates tetramer formation, and a large insertion that remodels the active site set SecS aside from other members of the family Mus musculus
