NNMT promotes epigenetic remodeling in cancer by creating a metabolic methylation sink
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is overexpressed in a variety of human cancers, where it contributes to tumorigenesis by a still poorly understood mechanism. Here, we show using metabolomics that NNMT impairs the methylation potential of cancer cells by consuming methyl units from S-adenosyl...
