Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the production of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. AdoMet is the key methyl donor in cellular processes. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011].
- UniProt Summary: Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine from methionine and ATP. The reaction comprises two steps that are both catalyzed by the same enzyme: formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) and triphosphate, and subsequent hydrolysis of the triphosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10644686, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23189196, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25075345}.
