Overview

The enzyme thymidylate synthase catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group and a hydride from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 2-deoxyuridine-5'-monophosphate, resulting in the formation of thymidine 5'-monophosphate and dihydrofolate. This is the only de novo source of dTMP in humans.

2-deoxyuridine-5'-monophosphate(dUMP) + 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate(CH₂H₄F) ⇌ thymidine 5'-monophosphate(dTMP) + Dihydrofolate(H₂F)
