DESCRIPTION

Also known as METK1_HUMAN, MAT1A, AMS1, MATA1. 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. Homotetramer (MAT-I); dimer of dimers (PubMed:23425511). Homodimer (MAT-III) (By similarity).
