Photodissociation of 3-(methylthio)propylamine and cysteamine, the chromophores of S atom containing amino acid methionine and cysteine, respectively, was studied separately in a molecular beam at 193 nm using multimass ion imaging techniques. Four dissociation channels were observed for 3-(methylthio)propylamine, including

Methylthiopropylamine (MTPA), an inhibitor of spermidine synthase, markedly induced ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity (about 30-fold of the basal level) in human lymphoid leukemia Molt 4B cells. This induction was blocked by the addition of spermidine, spermine or putrescine simultaneously with
