IPR008284

Description

IPR008284 is a Molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis, conserved site.

<p>Eukaryotic and prokaryotic molybdoenzymes require a molybdopterin cofactor (MoCF) for their activity. The biosynthesis of this cofactor involves a complex multistep enzymatic pathway. One of the eukaryotic proteins involved in this pathway is the Drosophila protein cinnamon [[cite:PUB00001935]] which is highly similar to gephyrin, a rat microtubule-associated protein which was thought to anchor the glycine receptor to subsynaptic microtubules.</p> <p>Cinnamon and gephyrin are evolutionary related, in their N-terminal half, to the Escherichia coli MoCF biosynthesis proteins mog/chlG and moaB/chlA2.</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Biological process Mo-molybdopterin cofactor biosynthetic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of the Mo-molybdopterin cofactor, essential for the catalytic activity of some enzymes. The cofactor consists of a mononuclear molybdenum (Mo) ion coordinated by one or two molybdopterin ligands.
