Methionine Aminopeptidase from Pyrococcus furiosus has been used in a study to analyze the binding of Co(II)-specific inhibitors to the methionyl aminopeptidases from Escherichia coli and Pyrococcus furiosus. It has also been used in a study to examine the binding of a new class of pseudopeptide analog inhibitors.
일반 설명
Methionine aminopeptidase from Pyrococcus furiosus is a 32 kDa thermostable enzyme. It belongs to type 2a class of methionine aminopeptidase. Methionine aminopeptidase maintains protein homeostasis and coordinates posttranslational modification of proteins in eukaryotes.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Thermostable methionine aminopeptidase, which specifically liberates the N-terminal methioinine from proteins and peptides.
