Adenosylmethionine cyclotransferase (EC 4.4.1.42) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
This enzyme has one substrate, S-adenosyl-L-methionine, which cleaves to give initially L-homoserine lactone and 5'-methylthioadenosine. The lactone is converted to homoserine by spontaneous hydrolysis.[1][2][3]
This enzyme was originally described from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and categorised as a transferase. Later, it was found in bacteriophages and called a hydrolase.[4] However, the bacteriophage enzyme is in fact a lyase with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine lyase.[5][6]
