Application

5′-Deoxy-5′-(methylthio)adenosine has been used as a protein methylation inhibitor to reduce E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) protein abundance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. It has also been used to inhibit histone methylation modification and study its role in hypoxia inducible factor-1 (Hif-1) nuclear transport.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5′-Deoxy-5′-(methylthio)adenosine (Methylthioadenosine) may be used as a substrate to study the specificity and kinetics of 5′-methylthioadenosinephosphorylase (MTAP) (EC2.4.2.28), a tumor suppressor gene expressed enzyme that supports the S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) and methionine salvage pathways.
