| Abstract | A number of formyl transferases belong to this group.
Methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase transfers a formyl group onto
the amino terminus of the acyl moiety of the methionyl aminoacyl-tRNA. The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its recognition by IF2 and by impairing its binding to EFTU-GTP.
Formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase produces formate from formyl-
tetrahydrofolate. This is the N-terminal domain of these enzymes and is found upstream of the C-terminal domain .
The trifunctional glycinamide ribonucleotide synthetase-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide synthetase-glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase catalyses the second, third and fifth steps in de novo purine biosynthesis. The glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase belongs to this group. |

Browse genome assignments for this superfamily. The SUPERFAMILY hidden Markov model library has been used to carry
out SCOP domain assignments to all genomes at the superfamily level.
|
Alignments of sequences to 7 models
in this superfamily are available by clicking on the 'Alignments' icon above. PDB sequences less than 40% identical
are shown by default, but any other sequence(s) may be aligned. Select PDB sequences, genome sequences, or paste in or upload your own sequences.

Browse and view proteins in genomes which have
different domain combinations including a Formyltransferase domain.
|
Examine the distribution of domain superfamilies, or families, across the major taxonomic kingdoms or genomes within a kingdom. This gives an immediate impression of how superfamilies, or families, are restricted to certain kingdoms of life.
|
|
Explore domain occurrence network where nodes represent genomes and edges are domain architectures (shared between genomes) containing the superfamily of interest.
|
There are 7 hidden Markov models representing the Formyltransferase superfamily. Information on how the models are built, and plots showing hydrophobicity, match emmission probabilities and insertion/deletion probabilities can be inspected.
