Structural studies show that the family is O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) selenium transferase, an enzyme involved in the synthesis of the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Sec is the only amino acid whose biosynthesis occurs on its cognate transfer RNA (tRNA). SepSecS catalyses the final step in the formation of the amino acid [3,4,5,6]. The early observation that autoantibodies isolated from patients with type I autoimmune hepatitis targeted a ribonucleoprotein complex containing tRNASec led to the identification and characterisation of the archaeal and the human SepSecS [2]. SepSecS forms its own branch in the family of fold-type I pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) enzymes that goes back to the last universal common ancestor which explains why the archaeal sequences Swiss:Q8TXK0 and Swiss:Q8TYR3 are annotated as being pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzymes.

O-phospho-L-seryl-tRNASec:L-selenocysteinyl-tRNA synthase  M-CSA #286

A pyridoxal-phosphate dependent protein. Catalyses the conversion of O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) to selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec), part of the selenoprotein biosynthesis pathway. In archaea and eukarya, selenocysteine formation is achieved in a two-step process where O-phosphoseryl-tRNASec kinase phosphorylates the endogenous L-seryl-tRNASec to O-phospho-L-seryl-tRNASec, followed by the conversion of the mis-acylated amino acid-tRNA species to L-selenocysteinyl-tRNASec by Sep-tRNA:Sec-tRNA synthase. The active site is formed at the dimer interface of the tetrameric units, with residues necessary for catalysis originating from both chains.
