S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine

● Article ● Talk ● Language ● Watch ● Edit (Redirected from S-adenosyl homocysteine)

S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH) is the biosynthetic precursor to homocysteine.^[1] SAH is formed by the demethylationofS-adenosyl-L-methionine.^[2]^[3] Adenosylhomocysteinase converts SAH into homocysteine and adenosine.

Biological role

edit

DNA methyltransferases are inhibited by SAH.^[4] Two S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine cofactor products can bind the active site of DNA methyltransferase 3B and prevent the DNA duplex from binding to the active site, which inhibits DNA methylation.^[5]
