Molecular modeling and synthesis of certain substituted aryl compounds which have a potential anticancer activity

open access: yesBulletin of Faculty of Pharmacy Cairo University, 2011
Aim: The enzyme methionine synthase (MetS) is linked to the cancer pathogenesis disorders such as myeloid leukemia, prostate and breast tumors. Inhibition of the biosynthesis of methionine amino acid which provides the tumor nucleic acid with one carbon ...

Defects in human methionine synthase in cblG patients [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 1996
Inborn errors resulting in isolated functional methionine synthase deficiency fall into two complementation groups, cblG and cblE. Using biochemical approaches we demonstrate that one cblG patient has greatly reduced levels of methionine synthase while in another, the enzyme is specifically impaired in the reductive activation cycle.

Auxotrophic Selection Strategy for Improved Production of Coenzyme B12 in Escherichia coli

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: The production of coenzyme B12 using well-characterized microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli, has recently attracted considerable attention to meet growing demands of coenzyme B12 in various applications. In the present study, we designed an

A riboswitch regulates expression of the coenzyme B12-independent methionine synthase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: implications for differential methionine synthase function in strains H37Rv and CDC1551.

open access: yes, 2007
We observed vitamin B(12)-mediated growth inhibition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551. The B(12) sensitivity was mapped to a polymorphism in metH, encoding a coenzyme B(12)-dependent methionine synthase.

Effect of methionine supplementation on methionine metabolism in growing cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Methionine is often the first limiting amino acid for growing cattle. This study was conducted to determine how methionine metabolism is regulated in the liver of growing steers.

Regulation of Folate Metabolizing Enzymes In Fungus Aspergillus nidulans

open access: yesPteridines, 1993
The regulation of methionine synthase. serine hydroxymethyltransferase. methylenetetrahydrofolate oxidorelluctase and dihydrofolate reductase in Aspergillus nidulans have been found to be controlled by endogenous pools methionine and homocysteine ...

Targeted Disruption of the Methionine Synthase Gene in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2001
Alterations in homocysteine, methionine, folate, and/or B12 homeostasis have been associated with neural tube defects, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Methionine synthase, one of only two mammalian enzymes known to require vitamin B12 as a cofactor, lies at the intersection of these metabolic pathways. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a methyl

The inactivation of methionine synthase in isolated rat hepatocytes by sodium nitroprusside

open access: yes, 1997
Methionine synthase, the enzyme that catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate to homocysteine via the cofactor methylcobalamin, is one of the two established mammalian enzymes that utilise a biologically active vitamin B-12
