This gene is a member of the methionyl aminopeptidase family and encodes a protein that binds 2 cobalt or manganese ions.
This protein functions both by protecting the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 from inhibitory phosphorylation and by removing the amino-terminal methionine residue from nascent protein.
Increased expression of this gene is associated with various forms of cancer and the anti-cancer drugs fumagillin and ovalicin inhibit the protein by irreversibly binding to its active site.
A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 2.
