Selenophosphate
IUPAC 名称
hydrogen hydroxy(selanylidene)phosphonite
描述
Selenophosphate is the universal selenium donor that is required for the formation of selenium dependent enzymes and selenium tRNAs (i.e.: selenocysteyl-tRNA). Selenophosphate is also the selenium donor used to synthesize selenocysteine, which is co-translationally incorporated into selenoproteins at in-frame UGA codons. Selenophosphate synthetase (EC 2.7.9.3, human SPS1, product of the selD gene) produces monoselenophosphate from selenide and ATP. The SPS1-encoded enzyme depends on a selenium salvage system that recycles L-selenocysteine. Selenophosphate synthetase genes play a role in cancer cell's response to ionizing radiation and its reaction product, selenophosphate, might be involved in cancer prevention in a p53-dependent manner and could be applied to development of a novel cancer therapy.
