New Insights into DHFR Interactions: Analysis of Pneumocystis carinii and Mouse DHFR Complexes with NADPH and Two Highly Potent Trimethoprim Derivatives
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 17019704
Function
[DYR_MOUSE] 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 DHFRL1.
