RC STRAIN=VK1; RX MEDLINE=95050326; PubMed=7961514; RA Meinnel T., Blanquet S.; RT "Characterization of the Thermus thermophilus locus encoding peptide RT deformylase and methionyl-tRNA(fMet) formyltransferase."; RL J. Bacteriol. 176:7387-7390(1994). RN [2] RP CHARACTERIZATION. RX MEDLINE=97272005; PubMed=9126850; DOI=10.1006/jmbi.1997.0904; RA Meinnel T., Lazennec C., Villoing S., Blanquet S.; RT "Structure-function relationships within the peptide deformylase RT family. Evidence for a conserved architecture of the active site RT involving three conserved motifs and a metal ion."; RL J. Mol. Biol. 267:749-761(1997). CC -!- FUNCTION: Removes the formyl group from the N-terminal Met of CC newly synthesized proteins. Requires at least a dipeptide for an CC efficient rate of reaction. N-terminal L-methionine is a CC prerequisite for activity but the enzyme has broad specificity at CC other positions (By similarity). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Formyl-L-methionyl peptide + H(2)O = formate + CC methionyl peptide. CC -!- COFACTOR: Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the polypeptide deformylase family.
