Mechanistic Characterization of Cyclic Pyranopterin Monophosphate Formation in Molybdenum Cofactor Biosynthesis

<p>The molybdenum cofactor (Moco) is an essential enzyme cofactor found in all kingdoms of life. Moco plays central roles in many vital biological processes, and must be biosynthesized de novo. During its biosynthesis, the characteristic pyranopterin ring of Moco is constructed by a complex re...
