Background: In Moco biosynthesis, sulfur is transferred from L-cysteine to MPT synthase, catalyzing the conversion of cPMP to MPT. Results: The rhodanese-like protein YnjE is a novel protein involved in Moco biosynthesis. Conclusion: YnjE enhances the rate of conversion of cPMP to MPT and interacts with MoeB and IscS. S ignificance: To understand the mechanism of sulfur transfer and the role of rhodaneses in the cell.
