Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsams-1 encodes an S-adenosyl methionine synthetase; by homology, SAMS-1 is predicted to function as a methyl-group donor in many biochemical reactions; sams-1 expression levels are negatively regulated by dietary restriction (as seen in eat-2 mutant animals), suggesting that increased lifespan due to dietary restriction is due, in part, to reducing the activity of key metabolic enzymes; loss of sams-1 via RNAi can extend adult lifespan.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00026715

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable methionine adenosyltransferase activity. Involved in negative regulation of lipid storage. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in body wall musculature; dorsal nerve cord; and ventral nerve cord. Used to study lipid metabolism disorder. 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).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
