Background： This gene encodes an important intermediate enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis. The polyamines spermine, spermidine, and putrescine are low-molecular-weight aliphatic amines essential for cellular proliferation and tumor promotion. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 5, 6, 10, X and Y. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013],

Function：catalytic activity:S-adenosyl-L-methionine = (5-deoxy-5-adenosyl)(3-aminopropyl)-methylsulfonium salt + CO(2).,cofactor:Pyruvoyl group.,enzyme regulation:Both proenzyme processing and catalytic activity are stimulated by putrescine. Catalytic activity is inhibited by iodoacetic acid.,pathway:Amine and polyamine biosynthesis; S-adenosylmethioninamine biosynthesis; S-adenosylmethioninamine from S-adenosyl-L-methionine: step 1/1.,PTM:Is synthesized initially as an inactive proenzyme. Formation of the active enzyme involves a self-maturation process in which the active site pyruvoyl group is generated from an internal serine residue via an autocatalytic post-translational modification. Two non-identical subunits are generated from the proenzyme in this reaction, and the pyruvate is formed at the N-terminus of the alpha chain, which is derived from the carboxyl end of the proenzyme.
