The generation of L-methionine (2-amino-4-(methylthio)butanoic acid) from methylthioadenosine. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of L-methionine, the L-enantiomer of (2S)-2-amino-4-(methylsulfanyl)butanoic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents. Any process that generates L-methionine from derivatives of it, without de novo synthesis. Any process which produces an amino acid from derivatives of it, without de novo synthesis. Any process which produces a useful metabolic compound from derivatives of it without de novo synthesis, as carried out by individual cells.
