| n-formylmethionine | <chemical> Effective in the initiation of protein synthesis. The initiating methionine residue enters the ribosome as n-formylmethionyl trna. This process occurs in escherichia coli and other bacteria as well as in the mitochondria of eucaryotic cells. Chemical name: L-Methionine, N-formyl- (12 Dec 1998) |
| n-formylmethionine leucyl-phenylalanine | <chemical> N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. A formylated tripeptide originally isolated from bacterial filtrates that is positively chemotactic to polymorphonuclear leucocytes, and causes them to release lysosomal enzymes and become metabolically activated. Chemical name: L-Phenylalanine, N-(N-(N-formyl-L-methionyl)-L-leucyl)- (12 Dec 1998) |
