Mat2a

MAT2A,即甲硫氨酸腺苷转移酶2A,别名AdoMet合成酶2、Methionine adenosyltransferase 2、S-adenosylmethionine synthase isoform type-2等。它是一种在人体内催化甲硫氨酸转化为S-腺苷甲硫氨酸(SAM)的关键酶,SAM是细胞内最重要的甲基供体,参与多种生物分子的甲基化过程。MAT2A由人体细胞自身的基因编码,在多种组织中都有表达,尤其在睾丸组织中表达量较高。其作用机制涉及到将ATP和甲硫氨酸作为底物,通过转移磷酸腺苷基团至甲硫氨酸,生成SAM,这一过程对维持细胞内的甲基化水平至关重要。MAT2A在生物学上的意义非常广泛,它不仅参与了一碳单位代谢和转硫途径,还与叶酸循环紧密相连。作为甲基化反应的关键辅助因子,MAT2A对DNA、RNA、蛋白质和脂质的甲基化修饰具有重要影响,这些甲基化修饰对基因表达调控、细胞信号传导、细胞增殖和分化等过程至关重要。MAT2A的功能异常与多种疾病相关,包括某些类型的癌症,例如在H3K27M突变的胶质瘤中,MAT2A的活性与肿瘤的生长和存活密切相关。因此,MAT2A不仅在细胞生理过程中发挥着核心作用,也是药物开发和疾病治疗中的潜在靶点。
