Reaction: MeSebGalNac is hydrolysed to MeSeH and bGalNac
- in pathway: Formation of selenosugars for excretion
1beta-methylseleno-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (MeSebGalNac) aka selenosugar B is hydrolysed to methylselenol (MeSeH) and N-acetyl-beta-D-galactosamine (bGalNac) by an unknown mechanism. The actual enzyme or enzymes involved have yet to be identified. This reaction is inferred from the event in rat (Suzuki et al. 2006).
Reaction - small molecule participants:
bGalNAc [cytosol]
MeSeH [cytosol]
H2O [cytosol]
