molecular function |
| GO:0008463 | | formylmethionine deformylase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: N-formyl-L-methionine + H(2)O = L-methionine + formate. |
| GO:0016787 | | hydrolase activity | | Catalysis of the hydrolysis of various bonds, e.g. C-O, C-N, C-C, phosphoric anhydride bonds, etc. Hydrolase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 3. |
| GO:0005506 | | iron ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with iron (Fe) ions. |
| GO:0046872 | | metal ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion. |
| GO:0042586 | | peptide deformylase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: formyl-L-methionyl peptide + H2O = formate + methionyl peptide. |
biological process |
| GO:0031365 | | N-terminal protein amino acid modification | | The alteration of the N-terminal amino acid residue in a protein. |
| GO:0006464 | | cellular protein modification process | | The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in proteins, peptides and nascent polypeptides (co-translational, post-translational modifications) occurring at the level of an individual cell. Includes the modification of charged tRNAs that are destined to occur in a protein (pre-translation modification). |
| GO:0043686 | | co-translational protein modification | | The process of covalently altering one or more amino acids in a protein after translation has begun but before the protein has been released from the ribosome. |
| GO:0006412 | | translation | | The cellular metabolic process in which a protein is formed, using the sequence of a mature mRNA or circRNA molecule to specify the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain. Translation is mediated by the ribosome, and begins with the formation of a ternary complex between aminoacylated initiator methionine tRNA, GTP, and initiation factor 2, which subsequently associates with the small subunit of the ribosome and an mRNA or circRNA. Translation ends with the release of a polypeptide chain from the ribosome. |
