'''S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase''' (AMD) catalyzes the conversion of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) to S-adenosylmethioninamine .  AMD is part of the polyamine biosynthesis, in particular in the biosynthesis of spermine and spermidine from putrescine.  AMD uses a covalently bound pyruvate as a cofactor.  The active AMD is generated by post-translational cleavage of a precursor molecule.  The cleavage results in non-identical α and β subunits and the modification of a serine residue to pyruvate.  There are 2 classes of AMD.  AMD I is found in bacteria and archae, AMD II is found in eukaryotes.
