N-myristoyltransferase 1 (NMT1)

Target
NMT1
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Transferase
01

Overview

N-myristoyltransferase 1 (NMT1) is an enzyme responsible for the covalent attachment of myristate to proteins, a process crucial for protein localization and function. It is involved in cell growth, development, and tumorigenesis, and is being investigated as a therapeutic target in cancer and parasitic infections.
