Summary
Enables methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase activity. Involved in conversion of methionyl-tRNA to N-formyl-methionyl-tRNA. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 15 and nuclear type mitochondrial complex I deficiency 27. Orthologous to human MTFMT (mitochondrial methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

General protein information

Preferred Names
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase
NP_009540.2
  • Methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase; catalyzes formylation of mitochondria initiator Met-tRNA and residual cytosolic Met-tRNA due to inefficient translocation into the mitochondrial matrix; starvation or stationary phase entry increases Gcn2p phosphorylation-mediated cytosolic retention of Fmt1p, enhancing N-terminal protein formylation and ultimately N-end rule pathway mediated destruction that involves the Psh1p ubiquitin ligase; potential Cdc28p substrate
