Alternative name(s):
Polypeptide deformylase
Gene names
Name:def
Ordered Locus Names:RPA0621
OrganismRhodopseudomonas palustris (strain ATCC BAA-98 / CGA009) [Complete proteome] [HAMAP]
Taxonomic identifier258594 [NCBI]
Taxonomic lineageBacteriaProteobacteriaAlphaproteobacteriaRhizobialesBradyrhizobiaceaeRhodopseudomonas

Protein attributes

Sequence length175 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceInferred from homology

General annotation (Comments)

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 By similarity. HAMAP MF_00163

Catalytic activity

Formyl-L-methionyl peptide + H2O = formate + methionyl peptide. HAMAP MF_00163

Cofactor

Binds 1 Fe2+ ion By similarity. HAMAP MF_00163

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the polypeptide deformylase family.
