Identification
Name: Molybdopterin
Description:Molybdopterins are a class of biochemical cofactor that are used in many different enzymes. The simplest structure of molybdopterin contains a pyranopterin coordinated to molybdenum. The pyranopterin structure is a fused ring system containing a pyran fused to pterin. In addition, the pyran ring is substituted with two thiols and an alkyl phosphate. In molybdopterin, the thiols coordinate to molybdenum. In some cases, the alkyl phosphate group is replaced by an alkyl diphosphate nucleotide. -- Wikipedia

Chemical Taxonomy
Taxonomy DescriptionThis compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as molybdopterins. These are cofactors or analogs thereof, with a structure based on a furan ring fused to a pterin. In addition, the pyran ring features two thiolates, which serve as ligands in molybdo- and tungstoenzymes. In some cases, the alkyl phosphate group is replaced by an alkyl diphosphate nucleotide.
