BioCyc:RXN-12730

The enzyme from Escherichia coli acts only on 5-methyl-tetrahydropteroylpolyglutamate (CH3-H4PteGlun) molecules which contain 2 or more glutamate residues|CITS: [10625458]|.

SELENOHOMOCYSTEINE + CPD-1302 --> SELENOMETHIONINE + CPD-1301

Selenohomocysteine[C4H9NO2Se] + 5-methyltetrahydropteroyl tri-L-glutamate[C30H35N9O12] = L-Selenomethionine[C5H11NO2Se] + tetrahydropteroyl tri-L-glutamate[C29H33N9O12]
