Design of an Antifungal Methionine Inhibitor Not Antagonized by Methionine.

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1995
Only a few biosynthetic pathways in fungal cells have been used as antifungal targets. Therefore, the number of antifungals has been limited, and a cross-drug resistance among them has emerged in the therapy of mycoses. Under such circumstances, the identification of an antifungal with a new mode of action is highly desirable.

Conformational dynamics, ligand binding and effects of mutations in NirE an S-adenosyl-L-methionine dependent Methyltransferase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Heme d1, a vital tetrapyrrol involved in the denitrification processes is synthesized from its precursor molecule precorrin-2 in a chemical reaction catalysed by an S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) dependent Methyltransferase (NirE).

Enzymatic Synthesis of L-Methionine Analogues and Application in a Methyltransferase Catalysed Alkylation Cascade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Chemical modification of small molecules is a key step for the development of pharmaceuticals. S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) analogues are used by methyltransferases (MTs) to transfer alkyl, allyl and benzyl moieties chemo-, stereo- and regioselectively ...

Dietary methionine supplementation improves the European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) immune status following long-term feeding on fishmeal-free diets

open access: yes, 2020
Methionine is a limiting amino acid (AA) in fish diets, particularly in those containing high levels of plant protein (PP), and is key in the immune system.
