Scly - selenocysteine lyase

Predicted to enable several functions, including protein homodimerization activity; selenocysteine lyase activity; and vitamin B6 binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of cellular response to oxidative stress; response to insulin; and selenium compound metabolic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be part of catalytic complex. Is expressed in alimentary system; liver; and nervous system. Orthologous to human SCLY (selenocysteine lyase).
