5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase

UniProtKB accession:  G2IQS8

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Is required to provide the methyl group necessary for methionine synthetase to convert homocysteine to methionine; the methyl group is given by 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (By similarity). Is required for Sphingobium SYK-6 to grow on vanillate or syringate as the sole source of carbon (Ref.3).
