Molybdopterin molybdotransferase (EC 2.10.1.1, MoeA, Cnx1) is an enzyme with systematic name adenylyl-molybdopterin:molybdate molybdate transferase (AMP-forming).[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

adenylyl-molybdopterin + molybdate molybdenum cofactor + AMP

Catalyses the insertion of molybdenum into the ene-dithiol group of molybdopterin.
