METAP1/Methionine aminopeptidase 1 Protein, Human

METAP1 (or methionine aminopeptidase 1) plays a crucial role in protein synthesis by co-translationally removing N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. This enzymatic activity is particularly relevant when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (including residues such as Ala, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr or Val). METAP1/Methionine aminopeptidase 1 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived METAP1/Methionine aminopeptidase 1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of METAP1/Methionine aminopeptidase 1 Protein, Human is 386 a.a., with molecular weight of 38-50 kDa.

METAP1, or Methionine Aminopeptidase 1, is a protein crucial for protein synthesis regulation. It cotranslationally eliminates the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins, especially when the second residue in the primary sequence is a small and uncharged amino acid, such as Met-Ala, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val. This activity is vital for proper maturation and function of proteins. Additionally, METAP1 plays a pivotal role in cellular processes by being required for normal progression through the cell cycle. Its involvement in the cell cycle underscores its significance in fundamental biological events, further emphasizing its role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and proper functioning.
