Tumor uptake studies of S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-11C]methionine and L-[methyl-11C]methionine.
Tumor accumulation of S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-11C]methionine ([11C]SAM) was investigated in mice bearing mammary carcinoma (FM3A) and in rats bearing ascitic hepatoma (AH109A). After injection of [11C]SAM the blood clearance of 11C radioactivity was rapid. The 11C level was relatively high in both tumors. The uptake ratios of tumor to organ increased with time in several organs, especially in brai...
متن کاملS-Adenosyl-L-methionine towards hepatitis C virus expression: Need to consider S-Adenosyl-L-methionine’s chemistry, physiology and pharmacokinetics
S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is a cofactor serving as a methyl donor in numerous enzymatic reactions. It has been reported that SAM has the potential to modify antioxidant-enzymes, glutathione-biosynthesis and methionine adenosyltransferases-1/2 in hepatitis C virus -expressing cells at millimolar concentrations. The efficacy of SAM at micromolar concentrations and the underlying mechanisms re...
متن کاملA cDNA encoding S-adenosyl-L-methionine synthetase from poplar.
Adomet synthetase (EC 2.5.1.6) catalyzes the formation of Adomet, which serves as a methyl group donor in highly specific transmethylation reactions involving a11 kinds of acceptor molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, phenylpropanoid derivatives, polysaccharides, cyclic fatty acids, etc. Adomet also plays a role in amino acid biosynthesis and polyamine biosynthesis. In plants, Adomet has ...
متن کامل7-Carboxy-7-deazaguanine Synthase: A Radical S-Adenosyl-l-methionine Enzyme with Polar Tendencies
Radical S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) enzymes are widely distributed and catalyze diverse reactions. SAM binds to the unique iron atom of a site-differentiated [4Fe-4S] cluster and is reductively cleaved to generate a 5'-deoxyadenosyl radical, which initiates turnover. 7-Carboxy-7-deazaguanine (CDG) synthase (QueE) catalyzes a key step in the biosynthesis of 7-deazapurine containing natural pro...
متن کاملRadical S-adenosyl-L-methionine chemistry in the synthesis of hydrogenase and nitrogenase metal cofactors.
Nitrogenase, [FeFe]-hydrogenase, and [Fe]-hydrogenase enzymes perform catalysis at metal cofactors with biologically unusual non-protein ligands. The FeMo cofactor of nitrogenase has a MoFe7S9 cluster with a central carbon, whereas the H-cluster of [FeFe]-hydrogenase contains a 2Fe subcluster coordinated by cyanide and CO ligands as well as dithiomethylamine; the [Fe]-hydrogenase cofactor has C...
