✦ Synopsis


Some metK mutants of Salmonella typhimurium with constitutive methionine biosynthesis have no detectable S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthetase, the enzyme which converts methionine to SAM, the postulated corepressor of the methionine pathway. However, these mutants are not auxotrophic for SAM, an essential compound for many reactions.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain 83384-B3 carries the sai-1 mutation which confers sensitivity to S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). It was shown that the mutant is impermeable to precursors of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein during inhibition by SAM (0.2 mM). Inhibition

Oligodeoxynucleotides 18 nucleotides in length having sequences complementary to regions spanning the initiation codon regions of ornithine decarboxylase or S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase mRNAs were tested for their ability to inhibit translation of these mRNAs. In reticulocyte lysates, a strong
