Linkage of methionine addiction, histone lysine hypermethylation, and malignancy
Summary: Methionine addiction, found in all types of cancer investigated, is because of the overuse of methionine by cancer cells for excess transmethylation reactions. In the present study, we compared the histone H3 lysine-methylation status and degree

Effect of methyl donors supplementation on performance, immune responses and anti-oxidant variables in broiler chicken fed diet without supplemental methionine [PDF]
Objective Methionine (Met) is involved in methyl group transfer besides protein synthesis. As the availability is limited and cost is high for synthetic Met, reductions in its inclusion in broiler diet may be possible by supplementing the low Met diets ...

4006 Methionine Dependence in Cancer: From Metabolic Phenotype to Therapy
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Methionine dependence was described 45 years ago as an increased reliance on an exogenous supply of the essential amino acid methionine in most cancer cells compared to normal cells. Methionine depletion, using either synthetic diets or

Methionine sulfoxide reductase A is a stereospecific methionine oxidase [PDF]
Methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) catalyzes the reduction of methionine sulfoxide to methionine and is specific for the S epimer of methionine sulfoxide. The enzyme participates in defense against oxidative stresses by reducing methionine sulfoxide residues in proteins back to methionine.

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate Sulfur and Methyl Carbon Assimilation in
Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is abundant in marine environments and an important source of reduced carbon and sulfur for marine bacteria. While both Ruegeria pomeroyi and Ruegeria lacuscaerulensis possessed genes encoding the DMSP demethylation and ...
