Binding of AdoMet to its enzyme AdoMetDC is the first step and binding occurs through the pyruvate prosthetic group, reacting to give a Schiff base <ref name="six"/>. The pyruvate then acts as an election sink, helping to break the carbon to carboxylic acid bond (C-COO-) resulting in a carbon dioxide (CO2) being eliminated <ref name="six"/>. Protonation occurs at the R carbon of the product resulting in the release of dcAdoMet <ref name="six"/>. This protonation also regenerates the pyruvate cofactor so that it is available and ready for another reaction <ref name="six"/>.
