Find PDB structures and Computed Structure Models (CSM) by combining queries from tools in this suite: Attribute Search, Sequence Similarity, Sequence Motif, 3D Similarity, and 3D Motif with 'AND' logic.
In prokaryotes, proteins are synthesised with an N-terminal formylmethionine which is removed by peptide deformylase. Eukaryotes do not use this enzyme, so it represents a potential drug target for the treatment of bacterial infections.
