Adenylosuccinate, also known as succinyl-adenosine monophosphate (S-AMP), is an intermediate in the interconversion of purine nucleotides inosine monophosphate (IMP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP). The enzyme adenylosuccinate synthase carries out the reaction of IMP to S-AMP in a 2 step mechanism,{{Cite journal |last1=Mehrotra |first1=Sonali |last2=Balaram |first2=Hemalatha |date=2007-11-06 |title=Kinetic characterization of adenylosuccinate synthetase from the thermophilic archaea Methanocaldococcus jannaschii |url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17929831/ |journal=Biochemistry |volume=46 |issue=44 |pages=12821–12832 |doi=10.1021/bi701009y |issn=0006-2960 |pmid=17929831}} requiring the input of energy from a phosphoanhydride bond from the hydrolysis of guanosine triphosphate (GTP)Figures 20.4 and 20.7 in Textbook of Biochemistry, with clinical correlations, Sixth Edition, Thomas M.

The enzyme adenylosuccinate lyase carries out the reaction removing the carbon skeleton from S-AMP attached from aspartate, forming AMP and fumarate. The pathway from IMP to AMP is present across various prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and is linked to various diseases.{{Cite journal |last1=Marsac |first1=Roxane |last2=Pinson |first2=Benoît |last3=Saint-Marc |first3=Christelle |last4=Olmedo |first4=María |last5=Artal-Sanz |first5=Marta |last6=Daignan-Fornier |first6=Bertrand |last7=Gomes |first7=José-Eduardo |date=2019 |title=Purine Homeostasis Is Necessary for Developmental Timing, Germline Maintenance and Muscle Integrity in Caenorhabditis elegans |journal=Genetics |volume=211 |issue=4 |pages=1297–1313 |doi=10.1534/genetics.118.301062 |issn=1943-2631 |pmc=6456310 |pmid=30700528}} S-AMP has been observed to stimulate insulin production.{{Cite journal |last1=Gooding |first1=Jessica R. |last2=Jensen |first2=Mette V. |last3=Dai |first3=Xiaoqing |last4=Wenner |first4=Brett R. |last5=Lu |first5=Danhong |last6=Arumugam |first6=Ramamani |last7=Ferdaoussi |first7=Mourad |last8=MacDonald |first8=Patrick E. |last9=Newgard |first9=Christopher B. |date=2015-10-06 |title=Adenylosuccinate Is an Insulin Secretagogue Derived from Glucose-Induced Purine Metabolism |journal=Cell Reports |volume=13 |issue=1 |pages=157–167 |doi=10.1016/j.celrep.2015.08.072 |issn=2211-1247 |pmc=4598307 |pmid=26411681}}
