S-adenosylmethioninamine; decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine; S-adenosyl-3-methylthiopropylamine; decarboxylated SAM; decarboxylated AdoMet (dAdoMet)

Introduction

substrate of spermidine synthase in the conversion of putrescine to spermidine; forms S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine

S-adenosylmethioninamine + putrescine
       <-->
5'-S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + spermidine
