Background Information

MetAP2, also known as MAP2, P67EIF2 or p67, is one of the three known methionine aminopeptidases responsible for the removal of the N-terminal translation initiator methionine from newly synthesized proteins, which is a critical step in protein maturation (PMID: 27692546, 16568094). The enzyme binds two cobalt or manganese ions in its active site (PMID: 11524009, 12718546). As higher MetAP2 expression was observed in tumor (mesothelioma, neuroblastoma, and colorectal carcinoma) cells compared with normal cells, the enzyme serves as a target for anti-angiogenic compounds of natural origin, such as fumagillin and ovalicin (PMID: 11485930, 15927358, 15102683, 9224570). Selective inhibition of MetAP2 stops vascularization and tumor growth in animal models (PMID: 12118091). MetAP2 has 3 isoforms with molecular mass of 50-53 kDa and apparent molecular mass 67 kD.
