DESCRIPTION

Also known as SUMF1_HUMAN, SUMF1. Oxidase that catalyzes the conversion of cysteine to 3-oxoalanine on target proteins, using molecular oxygen and an unidentified reducing agent (PubMed:12757706, PubMed:15657036, PubMed:15907468, PubMed:25931126, PubMed:16368756, PubMed:21224894). 3-oxoalanine modification, which is also named formylglycine (fGly), occurs in the maturation of arylsulfatases and some alkaline phosphatases that use the hydrated form of 3-oxoalanine as a catalytic nucleophile (PubMed:12757706, PubMed:15657036, PubMed:15907468, PubMed:25931126, PubMed:16368756). Known substrates include GALNS, ARSA, STS and ARSE (PubMed:12757706, PubMed:15907468, PubMed:15657036). Monomer, homodimer and heterodimer with SUMF2.
