A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.8.4.5

Accepted Name
tRNA (N(6)-L-threonylcarbamoyladenosine(37)-C(2))-methylthiotransferase.
Alternative Name(s)
Methylthio-threonylcarbamoyl-adenosine transferase B.
Reaction catalysed
N(6)-L-threonylcarbamoyladenine(37) in tRNA + sulfur-(sulfur carrier) + 2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + reduced electron acceptor <=> 2-methylthio-N(6)-L-threonylcarbamoyladenine(37) in tRNA + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + (sulfur carrier) + L-methionine + 5'-deoxyadenosine + electron acceptor
Cofactor(s)
Iron-sulfur.
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, which is a member of the S-adenosyl-L-methionine- dependent radical (radical AdoMet) enzymes superfamily, binds two [4Fe-4S] clusters as well as the transferred sulfur.
  • The sulfur donor is believed to be one of the [4Fe-4S] clusters, which is sacrificed in the process, so that in vitro the reaction is a single turnover.
  • The identity of the electron donor is not known.
