A study of the metK gene encoding S-adenosylmethionine synthetase in Escherichia coli K-12
The metK gene of Escherichia coli encodes S-adenosylmethionine synthetase, which catalyzes the reaction between L-methionine and ATP to form S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), the universal methyl group donor in the cell. SAM synthetase is generally assumed to be essential in E. coli , but this has not bee...
