1 The SSAT-induced changes in cellular polyamine content resulted in a compensatory increase in the activities of ornithine decarboxylase and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase, i.e. the enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting steps in polyamine biosynthesis. Polyamines spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase 1 Homo sapiens

3 This is the first demonstration that a primary increase in SSAT activity will induce an interconversion-like change in the polyamine levels and the physiological role of SSAT is most likely to protect cells against too high concentrations of spermidine and spermine.
