The methyl cycle is a conserved regulator of biological clocks
2019-05-29
Abstract excerpt
The methyl cycle is a universally conserved metabolic pathway operating in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In this pathway, the amino acid methionine is used to synthesize S-adenosylmethionine, the methyl donor co-substrate in the methylation of nucleic acids, histone and non-histone proteins and many other molecules within the cell. The methylation of nucleic acids and proteins is the foundation of epigenetic and epi...
