Facts about Adenylyltransferase and sulfurtransferase MOCS3.
Acts by mediating the C-terminal thiocarboxylation of sulfur carriers URM1 and MOCS2A. Its N-terminus first interrupts URM1 and MOCS2A as acyl-adenylates (-COAMP), then the persulfide sulfur on the catalytic cysteine is moved to URM1 and MOCS2A to form thiocarboxylation (-COSH) of their C-terminus.
