Application

S-(5′-Adenosyl)-3-thiopropylamine has been used as a calibrant solution to spike human urine samples for solid-phase extraction studies. It has also been used as an analyte in capillary electrophoresis (CE) and micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC).

Biochem/physiol Actions

S-(5′-Adenosyl)-3-thiopropylamine or S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine comprises base, sugar or amino acid. It acts as an inhibitor for spermidine synthase and spermine synthase.

Other Notes

This decarboxylated S-Adenosyl-L-methionine is an important metabolite in polyamine biosynthesis, acting as aminopropyl group donor for propylamine transferases such as spermine synthase and spermidine synthase.
