Chemical Structure
10-Formylfolic acid
- CAS No.: 134-05-4
- Formula:C20H19N7O7
- Molecular Weight:469.41
IUPAC Name: (4-(N-((2-amino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropteridin-6-yl)methyl)formamido)benzoyl)-L-glutamic acid
InChIKey: UGWUWNVTCLDEOG-ZDUSSCGKSA-N
SMILES: O=C(O)[C@@H](NC(C1=CC=C(N(C=O)CC2=NC3=C(N=C2)N=C(N)NC3=O)C=C1)=O)CCC(O)=O
Biological Activity: 10-Formylfolic acid is a potent inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase, with an IC50 of 80 nM against the rat enzyme. 10-Formylfolic acid also acts as an orally active folate source and a growth factor for specific bacteria. 10-Formylfolic acid supports growth and increases plasma folate levels; its absorption and metabolism patterns are similar to those of folic acid, but its liver retention is slightly higher. It exhibits high folate activity in microbial assays, serves as a growth factor for Enterococcus faecalis and Lactobacillus casei, aids folate nutrient supply, and may exert cell regulatory functions[1][2][3].
