What is S-Adenosylmethionine: Biosynthesis & Roles about?
This document discusses S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), which is a key methyl donor in biological systems. It is produced from methionine and ATP in a unique biochemical reaction. SAM goes on to be used in a variety of methylation reactions, including methylation of DNA, RNA, proteins and small molecules. These methylation reactions are important for processes like gene expression and regulation. The document outlines the pathways that utilize SAM and its role as the major methylating agent in living organisms.
