An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Mitochondrial methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MTFMT gene.[1] The protein encoded by this nuclear gene localizes to the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the formylation of methionyl-tRNA.[1] Recessive-type mutations in MTFMT have been shown to cause mitochondrial disease.[2]
