Metabolite-dependent regulation of gene expression in trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Mechanisms regulating gene expression in trypanosomatid protozoa differ significantly from those in other eukaryotes. Transcription of the genome appears to be more or less constitutive with the polyadenylation and trans-splicing of large polycistronic ...

A natural riboswitch scaffold with self-methylation activity
In humans, protein methyltransferase is responsible for RNA methylation using S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl group donor. Here the authors report a self-methylation activity of a bacterial riboswitch.

S-adenosylhomocysteine as a methyl transfer catalyst in biocatalytic methylation reactions [PDF]
S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferases form a large family of enzymes that can catalyse regio-, chemo- and stereospecific methylation of complex natural products.

Vitamin B12-impaired metabolism produces apoptosis and Parkinson phenotype in rats expressing the transcobalamin-oleosin chimera in substantia nigra. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Vitamin B12 is indispensable for proper brain functioning and cytosolic synthesis of S-adenosylmethionine. Whether its deficiency produces effects on viability and apoptosis of neurons remains unknown.

The Impact of One Carbon Metabolism on Histone Methylation
The effect of one carbon metabolism on DNA methylation has been well described, bridging nutrition, metabolism, and epigenetics. This modification is mediated by the metabolite S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), which is also the methyl-donating substrate of ...

S-Adenosylmethionine for osteoarthritis of the knee or hip [PDF]
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of joint disease and the leading cause of pain and disability in the elderly. S-Adenosylmethionine may be a viable treatment option but the evidence about its effectiveness and safety is equivocal.We set out to compare S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe) with placebo or no specific intervention in terms of effects on pain

S-adenosylmethionine and superoxide dismutase 1 synergistically counteract Alzheimer's disease features progression in tgCRND8 mice [PDF]
Recent evidence emphasizes the role of dysregulated one-carbon metabolism in Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Exploiting a nutritional B-vitamin deficiency paradigm, we have previously shown that PSEN1 and BACE1 activity is modulated by one-carbon metabolism ...
