Synonyms: | selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) anabolism, selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) biosynthesis, selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) formation, selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) synthesis |
Definition: | OBSOLETE. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec). This process occurs through the following steps: a unique serine-tRNA with a UGA recognizing anticodon is first aminoacylated with serine; this is then phosphorylated by phosphoseryl-tRNA[Ser]Sec kinase; lastly, selenium is swapped for the phosphate on the serine. |
