background:
This gene encodes an enzyme that synthesizes selenophosphate from selenide and ATP. Selenophosphate is the selenium donor used to synthesize selenocysteine, which is co-translationally incorporated into selenoproteins at in-frame UGA codons. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
Function:
Synthesizes selenophosphate from selenide and ATP.
Subunit:
Homodimer (isoform 1, isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4). Heterodimer of isoform 1 and isoform 3. Heterodimer of isoform 2 and isoform 4.
Tissue Specificity:
Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are gradually expressed during the cell cycle until G2/M phase and then decreased. Isoform 3 is gradually expressed during the cell cycle until S phase and then decreased.
Similarity:
Belongs to the selenophosphate synthase 1 family. Class II subfamily.
