S-adenosyl-L-methionine + arsenite maximal conversion of arsenite to monomethylarsonate occurs at about 0.1 mM arsenite. Higher substrate concentrations inhibit monomethylarsonate yields. The production of dimethylarsinic acid increases as arsenite concentration increases from 0.0005 to 0.0083 mM, and then quickly decreases to zero Homo sapiens S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + monomethylarsonate + dimethylarsinic acid
