Identification
NameGlycylpeptide N-tetradecanoyltransferase
Synonyms
  • Cell division control protein 72
  • Myristoyl-CoA:protein N-myristoyltransferase
  • NMT
  • Peptide N-myristoyltransferase
Gene NameNMT1
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in glycylpeptide N-tetradecanoyltransferase activity
Specific FunctionAdds a myristoyl group to the N-terminal glycine residue of certain cellular proteins. Substrate specificity requires an N- terminal glycine in the nascent polypeptide substrates. Uncharged amino acids are preferred at position 2 while neutral residues are favored at positions 3 and 4. Ser is present at position 5 in almost all known N-myristoyl proteins and Lys is commonly encountered at postion 6
