Abstract excerpt
Therapy of molybdenum cofactor (Moco) deficiency has received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2021. Whereas urothione, the urinary excreted catabolite of Moco, is used as diagnostic biomarker for Moco-deficiency, its catabolic pathway remains unknown. Here, we identified the urothione-synthesizing methyltransferase using mouse liver tissue by anion exchange/size exclusion chromatography and...
