Introduction
Methionine aminopeptidase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the METAP2 gene. Methionine aminopeptidase 2, a member of the dimetallohydrolase family, is a cytosolic metalloenzyme that catalyzes the hydrolytic removal of N-terminal methionine residues from nascent proteins. peptide-methionine peptide + methionine. MetAP2 is found in all organisms and is especially important because of its critical role in tissue repair and protein degradation. Furthermore, MetAP2 is of particular interest because the enzyme plays a key role in angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, which is necessary for the progression of diseases including solid tumor cancers and rheumatoid arthritis. MetAP2 is also the target of two groups of anti-angiogenic natural products, ovalicin and fumagillin, and their analogs.
