| Name: | S-Methylmethionine |
|---|
| Description | S-methylmethionine can be used by E coli as a source of methionine. It is taken up from the environment via the methionine update system or a S-methylmethionine permiase, and converted to methionine inside the cell. This has especially been observed under methionine auxotrophic conditions. (PMID: 9882684) |
