General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function human thymidylate synthase and dihydrofolate reductase form a strong complex in vitro and colocalize in human normal and colon cancer cell cytoplasm and nucleus. Treatment of cancer cells with methotrexate or 5-fluorouracil does not affect the distribution of either enzyme within the cells. 5-fluorouracil, but not methotrexate, lowers the presence of dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase complex in the nucleus by 2.5fold Homo sapiens
