gene: sams-5 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable methionine adenosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in S-adenosylmethionine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in MI neuron. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypermethioninemia and lung cancer. Is an ortholog of human MAT1A (methionine adenosyltransferase 1A) and MAT2A (methionine adenosyltransferase 2A).
