Function

function

Removes the formyl group from the N-terminal Met of newly synthesized proteins. Requires at least a dipeptide for an efficient rate of reaction. N-terminal L-methionine is a prerequisite for activity but the enzyme has broad specificity at other positions.

Catalytic activity

Cofactor

Fe2+ (UniProtKB | Rhea| CHEBI:29033 )
