Contributes to the maintenance of AdoMet homeostasis and is required to sustain high rates of ethylene synthesis. Inactive towards S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH/AdoHcy) (PubMed:18342331, PubMed:19249293). Homodimer (PubMed:19249293, PubMed:16909418). Interacts with CBL3 in a calcium-dependent manner.
