O-Phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) Selenium Transferase

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) selenium transferase (501 aa, ~56 kDa) is encoded by the human SEPSECS gene. This protein is involved in the conversion of O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) to selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec).
