General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine from methionine and ATP. The overall synthetic reaction is composed of two sequential steps, AdoMet formation and the subsequent tripolyphosphate hydrolysis which occurs prior to release of AdoMet from the enzyme By similarity.

Catalytic activity

ATP + L-methionine + H2O = phosphate + diphosphate + S-adenosyl-L-methionine.

Cofactor

Binds 2 divalent ions per subunit. Magnesium or cobalt By similarity.

Binds 1 potassium ion per subunit By similarity.

Pathway

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

Subunit structure

Homotetramer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Mostly expressed in flowers, seedpods and roots, and, to a lower extent, in stems and leaves. Ref.1

Induction

By polyamines (PAs: putrescine, spermidine and spermine), methylglyoxal (bis-guanyhydrazone) (MGBG), and salt. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the AdoMet synthase family.
