[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MAP2_PYRFU MAP2_PYRFU] Removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The N-terminal methionine is often cleaved when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (Met-Ala-, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01975]<ref>PMID:9399590</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs) are ubiquitous metallohydrolases that remove the N-terminal methionine from nascent polypeptide chains. Although various crystal structures of MetAP in the presence of inhibitors have been solved, the structural aspects of the product-bound step has received little attention. Both perpendicular- and parallel-mode electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra were recorded for the Mn(II)-loaded forms of the type-I (Escherichia coli) and type-II (Pyrococcus furiosus) MetAPs in the presence of the reaction product l-methionine (L-Met). In general, similar EPR features were observed for both [MnMn(EcMetAP-I)]-L-Met and [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]-L-Met. The observed perpendicular-mode EPR spectra consisted of a six-line hyperfine pattern at g = 2.03 (A = 8.8 mT) with less intense signals with eleven-line splitting at g = 2.4 and 1.7 (A = 4.4 mT). The former feature results from mononuclear, magnetically isolated Mn(II) ions and this signal are 3-fold more intense in the [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]-L-Met EPR spectrum than in the [MnMn(EcMetAP-I)]-L-Met spectrum. Inspection of the EPR spectra of both [MnMn(EcMetAP-I)]-L-Met and [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]-L-Met at 40 K in the parallel mode reveals that the [Mn(EcMetAP-I)]-L-Met spectrum exhibits a well-resolved hyperfine split pattern at g = 7.6 with a hyperfine splitting constant of A = 4.4 mT. These data suggest the presence of a magnetically coupled dinuclear Mn(II) center. On the other hand, a similar feature was not observed for the [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]-L-Met complex. Therefore, the EPR data suggest that L-Met binds to [MnMn(EcMetAP-I)] differently than [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]. To confirm these data, the X-ray crystal structure of [MnMn(PfMetAP-II)]-L-Met was solved to 2.3 A resolution. Both Mn1 and Mn2 reside in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry, but the bridging water molecule, observed in the [CoCo(PfMetAP-II)] structure, is absent. Therefore, L-Met binding displaces this water molecule, but the carboxylate oxygen atom of L-Met does not bridge between the two Mn(II) ions. Instead, a single carboxylate oxygen atom of L-Met interacts with only Mn1, while the N-terminal amine nitrogen atom binds to M2. This L-Met binding mode is different from that observed for L-Met binding [CoCo(EcMetAP-I)]. Therefore, the catalytic mechanisms of type-I MetAPs may differ somewhat from type-II enzymes when a dinuclear metalloactive site is present.
