Abstract excerpt
S-adenosyl methionine synthetase (SAMS) catalyzes the biosynthesis of S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), which serves as a universal methyl group donor for numerous biochemical reactions. Previous studies have clearly demonstrated that SAMS-1, a C. elegans homolog of mammalian SAMS, is critical for dietary restriction (DR)-induced longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans. In addition to SAMS-1, three other SAMS paralogs...
