3g0m is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Salty. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
[SUFE_SALTY] Participates in cysteine desulfuration mediated by SufS. Cysteine desulfuration mobilizes sulfur from L-cysteine to yield L-alanine and constitutes an essential step in sulfur metabolism for biosynthesis of a variety of sulfur-containing biomolecules. Functions as a sulfur acceptor for SufS, by mediating the direct transfer of the sulfur atom from the S-sulfanylcysteine of SufS, an intermediate product of cysteine desulfuration process.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01832]
