Examples
-
When cells were exposed to elevated insulin and glucose, homocysteine remethylation was enhanced, which consequently increased intracellular adoMet concentrations by inducing adoMet synthase activity.
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism Current Issue 2009
-
Conclusions: We demonstrated the novel finding of a direct promoting effect of high cellular insulin or glucose exposure on homocysteine remethylation, adoMet synthase activity, and adoMet synthesis.

-
The expression profile of homocysteine remethylation, transmethylation, and transsulfuration-associated genes was determined.
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism Current Issue 2009
-
Effects of insulin and glucose on homocysteine remethylation and transsulfuration metabolic fluxes were investigated in a cell model using stable isotopic tracers and gas chromatography / mass spectrometry.

-
5-Methyltetrahydrofolate serves as the methyl group donor for the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine, thereby ensuring the provision of S-adenosylmethionine necessary for biologic methylation reactions, including DNA methylation.
