Relations 10
Pathways One-carbon Metabolism
Inhibitors methotrexate; pemetrexed disodium; trimetrexate; pralatrexate; pemetrexed
Function Key enzyme in folate metabolism. Contributes to the de novo mitochondrial thymidylate biosynthesis pathway. Catalyzes an essential reaction for de novo glycine and purine synthesis, and for DNA precursor synthesis. Binds its own mRNA and that of DHFR2.
