2-aminoacryloyl-tRNA, bound to the enzyme as an imine with the pyridoxal phosphate, is an intermediate in the reaction.,
Binding of tRNA(Sec) also occurs in the absence of the seryl group.,
Recognizes specifically tRNA(Sec)-species.,
Since the selenium atom replaces oxygen in serine, the product may also be referred to as L-selenoseryl-tRNA(Sel).,
The abbreviation Sel has also been used for selenocysteine but Sec is preferred.
