Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables GTP 3',8'-cyclase activity; S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding activity; and cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate synthase activity. Involved in molybdopterin cofactor biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be part of molybdopterin synthase complex. Used to study molybdenum cofactor deficiency type A. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in molybdenum cofactor deficiency type A. Orthologous to human MOCS1 (molybdenum cofactor synthesis 1).
