Mutations in MTFMT Underlie a Human Disorder of Formylation Causing Impaired Mitochondrial Translation

The metazoan mitochondrial translation machinery is unusual in having a single tRNA[superscript Met] that fulfills the dual role of the initiator and elongator tRNA[superscript Met]. A portion of the Met-tRNA[superscript Met] pool is formylated by mitochondrial methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase (MTFM...
