Identification
Name:Selenophosphate
DescriptionSelenophosphate is the universal selenium donor that is required for the formation of selenium dependent enzymes and selenium tRNAs (i.e.: selenocysteyl-tRNA). Selenophosphate is also the selenium donor used to synthesize selenocysteine, which is co-translationally incorporated into selenoproteins at in-frame UGA codons. Selenophosphate synthetase (EC 2.7.9.3, SPS, product of the E. coli selD gene) produces monoselenophosphate from selenide and ATP. (PMID: 8986768, 10609888)
