General annotation (Comments)

Function

Adenosylhomocysteine is a competitive inhibitor of S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyl transferase reactions; therefore adenosylhomocysteinase may play a key role in the control of methylations via regulation of the intracellular concentration of adenosylhomocysteine.

Catalytic activity

S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + H2O = L-homocysteine + adenosine.

Cofactor

Binds 1 NAD per subunit.

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-homocysteine biosynthesis; L-homocysteine from S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine: step 1/1.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the adenosylhomocysteinase family.
