== Function == | |||
'''Met repressor''' (MR) interacts with the DNA operator (Met box) repressing methionine synthesis. The co-repressor of MR is S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) which is a product of methionine synthesis. Binding of SAM to MR increases the repressor affinity to the DNA thus halting methionine synthesis<ref>PMID:8092669</ref>. For additional details see<br /> | |||
