In enzymology, a L-seryl-tRNASec selenium transferase (EC 2.9.1.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- L-seryl-tRNASec + selenophosphate L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASec + phosphate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are and , whereas its two products are and phosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring selenium-containing groups selenotransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is selenophosphate:L-seryl-tRNASec selenium transferase. Other names in common use include L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASel synthase, L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASec synthase selenocysteine synthase, cysteinyl-tRNASec-selenium transferase, and cysteinyl-tRNASec-selenium transferase. This enzyme participates in . It employs one cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate.
