  • Title: S-adenosylmethionine levels and protein methylation during morphogenesis of Mucor racemosus.
    Author: Garcia JR, Hiatt WR, Peters J, Sypherd PS.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1980 Apr; 142(1):196-201. PubMed ID: 7372569.
    Abstract:
    The intracellular level of S-adenosylmethionine increased as the yeast-phase cells of Mucor racemosus were induced to convert to hyphae. This increase correlated well with time course of the conversion in cell type and was independent of the metabolic changes caused by the shift to aerobic conditions. There was no significant change in the intracellular level of spermidine, a polyamine synthesized from putrescine and the propylamine group of S-adenosylmethionine. Spermine was not detected. An examination of protein methylation revealed an increase in the methylation of total protein during the shift in cell type and possible qualitative as well as quantitative changes in specific base proteins.
