ThiS (thiaminS) is a 66 aa protein involved in sulphur transfer Swiss:O32583. ThiS is coded in the thiCEFSGH operon in E. coli. This family of proteins have two conserved Glycines at the COOH terminus. Thiocarboxylate is formed at the last G in the activation process. Sulphur is transferred from ThiI to ThiS in a reaction catalysed by IscS [1]. MoaD, Swiss:P30748 a protein involved sulphur transfer in molybdopterin synthesis, is about the same length and shows limited sequence similarity to ThiS. Both have the conserved GG at the COOH end.

The ubiquitin-like small archaeal modifer protein 2 (SAMP2) is involved in sulfur transfer during molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis. SAMP2 has been demonstrated to form covalent conjugates with substrate proteins through an isopeptide linkage via C-terminal di-glycine motif in a streamlined archaeal E1-dependent pathway. SAMP2 also forms homo-conjugates through the intermolecular isopeptide bond between the C-terminal glycine and the Lys58 side chain, a feature that likely resembles polyubiquitination. This protein adopt a typical ubiquitin-like fold.
