UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: P11586 (P11586)
Gene Name:
MTHFD1
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Function: Trifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of three forms of one-carbon-substituted tetrahydrofolate: (6R)-5,10-methylene-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate, 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate and (6S)-10-formyltetrahydrofolate (PubMed:10828945, PubMed:18767138, PubMed:1881876). These derivatives of tetrahydrofolate are differentially required in nucleotide and amino acid biosynthesis, (6S)-10-formyltetrahydrofolate being required for purine biosynthesis while (6R)-5,10-methylene-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate is used for serine and methionine biosynthesis for instance (PubMed:18767138, PubMed:25633902)
