CC -!- FUNCTION: Attaches a formyl group to the free amino group of methionyl-
CC tRNA(fMet). The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the
CC initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its
CC recognition by IF2 and preventing the misappropriation of this tRNA by
CC the elongation apparatus. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00182}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=(6S)-10-formyltetrahydrofolate + L-methionyl-tRNA(fMet) =
CC (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + H(+) + N-formyl-L-methionyl-
CC tRNA(fMet); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:24380, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9952, Rhea:RHEA-
CC COMP:9953, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:57453, ChEBI:CHEBI:57454,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:78530, ChEBI:CHEBI:78844; EC=2.1.2.9;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00182};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the Fmt family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_00182}.
