Glycylpeptide N tetradecanoyltransferase 2, Myristoyl CoA:protein N myristoyltransferase 2, NMT 2, Peptide N myristoyltransferase 2, Type II N myristoyltransferase, NMT2_HUMAN.
NMT2 catalyzes the reaction of N-terminal myristoylation of many signaling proteins. It transfers myristic acid from myristoyl coenzyme A to the amino group of a proteins N-terminal glycine residue. several distinct NMTs exist, varying in apparent molecular weight and /or subcellular distribution.
