S-adenosylmethionine synthetase, Recombinant

S-adenosylmethionine synthetase, Recombinant

• Description: S-adenosylmethionine synthetase (EC 2.5.1.6) (also known as methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT)) is an enzyme that creates S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) by reacting methionine (a non-polar amino acid) and ATP (the basic currency of energy). AdoMet is a methyl donor for transmethylation. It gives away its methyl group and is also the propylamino donor in polyamine biosynthesis. S- adenosylmethionine synthetasecan be considered the rate-limiting step of the methionine cycle.
