Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes the irreversible transfer of a propylamine group from the amino donor S-adenosylmethioninamine (decarboxy-AdoMet) to putrescine (1,4-diaminobutane) to yield spermidine.
Catalytic activity RHEA:12721: putrescine + S-adenosyl 3-(methylsulfanyl)propylamine = H(+) + S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + spermidine
EC 2.5.1.16
Pathway Amine and polyamine biosynthesis; spermidine biosynthesis; spermidine from putrescine: step 1/1.
case <Feature:Transmembrane>1>
Subcellular location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
else case <Feature:Transmembrane==1>
Subcellular location Cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.
else
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
end case
Subunit Homodimer or homotetramer.
Similarity Belongs to the spermidine/spermine synthase family.
case not <FTTag:Act_site>
Caution Lacks the conserved Asp active site.
end case
