sams-5

Gene

sams-5

Protein

Probable S-adenosylmethionine synthase 5

Organism

Caenorhabditis elegans

Length

404 amino acids

Function

Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine from methionine and ATP. The reaction comprises two steps that are both catalyzed by the same enzyme: formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) and triphosphate, and subsequent hydrolysis of the triphosphate.

Similarity

Belongs to the AdoMet synthase family.
