Discovery of a novel structural motif in methionine aminopeptidase from Streptococci with possible post-translational modification
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24124477
Function
[B2IQ22_STRPS] Removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The N-terminal methionine is often cleaved when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (Met-Ala-, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val). Requires deformylation of the N(alpha)-formylated initiator methionine before it can be hydrolyzed (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01974]
