Formyl transferase, C-terminal domain
formyltransferase family protein
Many but not all members of this family are formyltransferases or deformylases, including hosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase 1 (EC 2.1.2.2), methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase (EC 2.1.2.9), and formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase (EC 3.5.1.1).
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase catalyzes formylation of the initiator methionyl-tRNA
The top-scoring characterized proteins other than methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase (fmt) itself are formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenases. The mitochondrial methionyl-tRNA formyltransferases are so divergent that, in a multiple alignment of bacterial fmt, mitochondrial fmt, and formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenases, the mitochondrial fmt appears the most different. However, because both bacterial and mitochondrial fmt are included in the seed alignment, all credible fmt sequences score higher than any non-fmt sequence. This enzyme modifies Met on initiator tRNA to f-Met.
