5′-Deoxy-5′-methylthioadenosine (MTA) is an intermediate in the generation of adenine and methionine that is produced by the decarboxylation of S-adenosylmethionine.{25496} This nucleoside is a potent agonist of adenosine receptors (Kis = 0.15, 1.13, 13.9, and 0.68 ?M for A1, A2A, A2B, and A3, respectively).{25499} At higher concentrations, MTA inhibits several enzymes, including protein carboxylmethyltransferase (Ki = 41 ?M), S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, SET methyltransferases, and spermidine and spermine synthases.{25497,25496,16624,25500}
