S-(5′-Adenosyl)-L-methionine chloride dihydrochloride (SAM) facilitates the transfer of methyl groups to proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. Methionine adenosyl transferase catalyses the synthesis of SAM from methionine and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). SAM functions to regulate various cellular functions like cell division, cell death, transcription, genetic stability, oxidant/antioxidant balance and polyamine homeostasis. Therapeutically, SAM finds its application as a nutritional supplement in humans for various diseases like osteoarthritis and liver injury. SAM also regulates transsulfuration reactions by binding to the regulatory domain of key enzyme cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS).
