Crystal Structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae N-myristoyltransferase with Bound MyristoylCoACrystal Structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae N-myristoyltransferase with Bound MyristoylCoA

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 11371195

FunctionFunction

[NMT_YEAST] Adds 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.
