MTAP loss disrupts the methionine salvage pathway, resulting in the accumulation of 5′-methylthioadenosine (MTA) and partial inhibition of PRMT5 activity. Cancer cells consequently enter a state with limited PRMT5 functional reserve and develop greater dependence on residual PRMT5 activity and ...
MAT catalyzes the conversion of methionine and ATP into S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). SAM is not only one of the most central active methyl donors in cells, but also lies at the intersection of one-carbon metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and stress adaptation. As mechanisms involving MAT1A/MAT2A ...
