Biological Activity: For-Met-OH (N-Formylmethionine) can be involved in the translation process of bacteria, chloroplasts, and mitochondria. For-Met-OH plays different roles in different species and organelles, such as promoting the formation of protein complexes in mitochondria and acting as a degradation signal in bacteria and yeast. The level of For-Met-OH is closely related to certain diseases, for example, For-Met-OH is a potential biomarker for metabolic disorders and poor prognosis in critically ill patients[1][2][3].
