In enzymology a N-formylmethionylaminoacyl-tRNA deformylase (EC 3.5.1.27) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionN-formyl-L-methionylaminoacyl-tRNA + H2O formate + L-methionylaminoacyl-tRNAThus the two substrates of this enzyme are N-formyl-L-methionylaminoacyl-tRNA and H2O whereas its two products are formate and L-methionylaminoacyl-tRNA.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in linear amides.
