S-Adenosyl methionine: Applications, Biochemistry & Adverse effects

S-Adenosyl methionine (SAM), also known under the commercial names of SAMe, SAM-e, or Adonat, is a common cosubstrate involved in methyl group transfers, transsulfuration, and aminopropylation. Although these anabolic reactions occur throughout the body, most SAM is produced and consumed in the liver. More than 40 methyl transfers from SAM are known, to…
