Mthfd1 - methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NADP+ dependent), methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase, formyltetrahydrofolate synthase Gene

Also Known as Dcs; Mthfd; E430024A07Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 108156

Summary

This gene encodes a trifunctional cytoplasmic enzyme. The encoded protein functions as a methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase, a methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase, and a formyltetrahydrofolate synthase. The encoded enzyme functions in de novo synthesis of purines and thymidylate and in regeneration of methionine from homocysteine. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
