Function

function

Catalyzes the ATP-dependent transfer of a sulfur to tRNA to produce 4-thiouridine in position 8 of tRNAs, which functions as a near-UV photosensor. Also catalyzes the transfer of sulfur to the sulfur carrier protein ThiS, forming ThiS-thiocarboxylate. This is a step in the synthesis of thiazole, in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway. The sulfur is donated as persulfide by IscS.

Caution

Lacks conserved residue(s) required for the propagation of feature annotation.

Catalytic activity

Pathway

Cofactor biosynthesis; thiamine diphosphate biosynthesis.
