Abstract
Two different strategies for the synthesis of S‐Adenosyl‐L‐methionine liphophilic derivatives have been attempted. The first chemical direct modification performed on S‐adenosyl‐L‐methionine is described.

S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe) has rapidly moved from being a methyl donor to a key metabolite that regulates hepatocyte growth, death, and differentiation. Biosynthesis of SAMe occurs in all mammalian cells as the first step in methionine catabolism in a reaction catalyzed by methionine adenosyltransf
Cation-exchange chromatography with sulfopropyl Sephadex was used to measure the levels of S-[methyl-3H]adenosyl-L-methionine synthesized by L1210 cells in vitro. Separation of S-[methyl-3H]adenosyl-L-methionine from [methyl-3H]methionine and other metabolites was achieved by stepwise elution with v
