Reaction: Sec is reduced to H2Se by PXLP-K259-SCLY dimer
- in pathway: Metabolism of ingested SeMet, Sec, MeSec into H2Se
Selenocysteine lyase (SCLY) homodimer is involved in the reduction of selenocysteine (Sec) to hydrogen selenide (H2Se) and alanine (Ala) (Daher and Van Lente 1992).
Reaction - small molecule participants:
H2Se [cytosol]
L-Ala [cytosol]
Sec [cytosol]
