The compound is a key product in the methionine cycle[1], which is responsible for synthesizing neurotransmitters like serotonin. Poor methylation in this cycle can reduce synthesis of rate-limiting compounds in the cycle, thus limiting production of neurotransmitters, perhaps inducing symptoms of mental illness. Another product in this cycle is SAMe (S−adenosyl methionine), which has been marketed for decades as supplement for improving depression.
