Summary
Molybdenum cofactor (MoCo) is necessary for the function of all molybdoenzymes. One of the enzymes required for the biosynthesis of MoCo is molybdopterin synthase (MPT synthase). The protein encoded by this gene adenylates and activates MPT synthase. This gene contains no introns. A pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 14. [provided by RefSeq]

PubMed 3. in humans & most eukaryotes thiosulfate is not physiologic sulfur donor for MOCS3, whereas in bacterial homologs, which have arginine at last position of active site loop, thiosulfate can be used as a sulfur source for molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis.
PubMed 4. MOCS3 protein is believed to catalyze both the adenylation and the subsequent generation of a thiocarboxylate group at the C terminus of the smaller subunit of molybdopterin synthase
PubMed 5. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry performed on a rhodanese-like carboxyl-terminal domain of human MOCS3 provides direct evidence for the formation of persulfide on cysteine residue 412.
