High impact information on Metap2

  • Negative regulation of the protection of eIF2alpha phosphorylation activity by a unique acidic domain present at the N-terminus of p67 [1].
  • Individual alanine substitutions at the above conserved amino acids in wild-type p67 did not show any significant effect on POEP activity except the E459 position where alanine substitution caused approximately 50% increase in POEP activity as compared to the wild type [1].
  • Discovery and optimization of anthranilic acid sulfonamides as inhibitors of methionine aminopeptidase-2: a structural basis for the reduction of albumin binding [2].
