Protein Summary

METAP1D is a 42 kDa mitochondrial methionyl aminopeptidase that catalyzes the removal of N-terminal methionine from mitochondrial proteins. It contains a conserved catalytic domain with a cobalt ion cofactor. The enzyme is essential for proper mitochondrial protein turnover and respiratory chain assembly.
