Impact of glutathione supplementation of parenteral nutrition on hepatic methionine adenosyltransferase activity [PDF]
Background: The oxidation of the methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) by the combined impact of peroxides contaminating parenteral nutrition (PN) and oxidized redox potential of glutathione is suspected to explain its inhibition observed in animals.

Role of methionine adenosyltransferase 2A in bovine preimplantation development and its associated genomic regions [PDF]
Methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) is involved in folate-mediated one-carbon metabolism, which is essential for preimplantation embryos in terms of both short-term periconceptional development and long-term phenotypic programming beyond the ...

MTAP Deficiency as a Metabolic Vulnerability in Cancer: Implications for Synthetic Lethal Therapy. [PDF]
MTAP deletion creates a therapeutically actionable metabolic vulnerability through MTA accumulation and PRMT5 dependency. This review summarizes the biochemical basis of MTAP‐directed synthetic lethality, emerging PRMT5/MAT2A inhibitors, clinicogenomic features of MTAP‐deleted tumors, and future strategies for precision oncology.

The role of forkhead box M1-methionine adenosyltransferase 2 A/2B axis in liver inflammation and fibrosis [PDF]
Methionine adenosyltransferase 2 A (MAT2A) and MAT2B are essential for hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation. Forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) transgenic mice develop liver inflammation and fibrosis. Here we examine if they crosstalk in male mice.

S-Adenosyl-d-Methionine as a Non-Physiological Substrate for a Wide Range of SAM-Dependent Enzymes. [PDF]
From methylation and cyclisation to radical chemistry, diverse enzyme classes utilise the non‐canonical cofactor d‐SAM. These findings reveal an unexpected tolerance of SAM‐dependent catalysis towards inversion of the methionine Cα stereocentre. The ability of SAM‐dependent enzymes to accept S‐adenosyl‐d‐methionine [d‐SAM, (SS,RCα)‐SAM] instead of the ...

Thoracic Aortic Dissection in a Patient With Classical Homocystinuria: Implications for Aortic Surveillance. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Classical homocystinuria (OMIM #236300), a rare inherited metabolic disorder caused by cystathionine beta‐synthase (CBS) deficiency, is characterized by markedly elevated homocysteine levels and associated multisystem complications. While the role of homocystinuria in venous thromboembolism is well recognized, there is limited evidence of ...
