(2R)-2-hydroxy-4-(methylsulfanyl)butanoate:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase
The substrate of this enzyme is formed as an intermediate during L-methionine salvage from S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine, which is formed during the biosynthesis of polyamines. The human enzyme also functions as a transcriptional co-regulator that downregulates the expression of many tumor-suppressor genes, thus providing a link between gene repression and the methionine salvage pathway. A similar, but NADP-specific, enzyme is involved in dimethylsulfoniopropanoate biosynthesis in algae and phytoplankton.
