Abstract excerpt
We previously characterized a methionine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.18; Met-AP1; also called peptidase M) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which differs from its prokaryotic homologues in that it (i) contains an N-terminal zinc-finger domain and (ii) does not produce lethality when disrupted, although it does slow growth dramatically; it is encoded by a gene called MAP1. Here we describe a second methionine...
