| UniProt functional annotation for Q9I7A8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9I7A8. |
| Organism: | Pseudomonas aeruginosa (strain ATCC 15692 / DSM 22644 / CIP 104116 / JCM 14847 / LMG 12228 / 1C / PRS 101 / PAO1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Pseudomonadales; Pseudomonadaceae; Pseudomonas. | |
| 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. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00163}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=H2O + N-terminal N-formyl-L-methionyl-[peptide] = formate + N- terminal L-methionyl-[peptide]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:24420, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10639, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10640, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15740, ChEBI:CHEBI:49298, ChEBI:CHEBI:64731; EC=3.5.1.88; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00163}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Fe(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29033; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00163}; Note=Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00163}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the polypeptide deformylase family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00163}. | |
