| abstract |
The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides that are derived from wildtype Bacillus subtilis S-Adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthase or from a biologically active fragment thereof, wherein said isolated polypeptides comprise an amino acid sequence that, in relation to the amino acid sequence of said wildtype Bacillus subtilis SAM synthase or of the biologically active fragment thereof, comprises at least one amino acid substitution, selected from the group consisting of amino acid substitutions at positions 1317 and 1105. The present invention further relates to respective isolated nucleic acids, vectors, host cells, uses and methods for the production of SAM derivatives. |
