Selenide, water dikinase
In enzymology, a selenide, water dikinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, selenide, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are AMP, selenophosphate, and phosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, to be specific, those transferring phosphorus-containing groups with paired acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:selenide, water phosphotransferase. This enzyme is also called selenophosphate synthetase. This enzyme participates in selenoamino acid metabolism.
