Supplementary information

MAT2A (methionine adenosyltransferase 2A) and MAT1A (methionine adenosyltransferase 1A) are enzymes that catalyze the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) from methionine and ATP. MAT2A has a mass of approximately 43 kDa while MAT1A is around 45 kDa. MAT2A is expressed in all tissues except the liver where MAT1A is the more common form. The liver abundantly expresses MAT1A positioning it as a major contributor to hepatic SAM production while MAT2A forms are often seen in peripheral tissues and in proliferating cells.
Biological function summary

MAT2A and MAT1A play roles in one-carbon metabolism and are essential for the synthesis of SAM a universal methyl donor involved in methylation reactions. As part of a catalytic complex these enzymes contribute to the regulation of cellular methylation status and impact polyamine synthesis antioxidant defense and nucleotide synthesis. The activities of MAT2A and MAT1A influence cellular growth and differentiation reflecting their significance in metabolism and gene expression regulation.

Pathways

MAT2A and MAT1A participate in the methionine cycle which intersects with the folate cycle to regulate methylation processes and homocysteine levels. They form part of the trans-sulfuration and transmethylation pathways essential for converting methionine to cysteine and for methyl group transfers. Their activities align with pathways involving methionine synthase which similarly contributes to methyl group transfer and cycling of methionine and folates.

Dysfunction in MAT2A and MAT1A associates with liver diseases and certain cancers. In liver disorders imbalance in SAM synthesis due to MAT1A deficiencies can lead to hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. In cancer upregulation of MAT2A supports tumor growth by providing SAM for enhanced methylation and proliferation of cancer cells. Related proteins like glycine N-methyltransferase also connect to these disorders through their roles in SAM metabolism and regulation.

Target data

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.
