We can basically remove this methyl and attach it onto a target molecule. And that's exactly what happens in step two. So let's suppose we have some target molecule that we want to methylate and so we take the Sam. We use it to actually methylate that product molecule that removes this methyl group, and it forms this molecule we call S adenosyl homocysteine. So once you remove this methyl group, there is no longer positive charge on this sulfur. And so it's slightly more stable than before.
