LITERATURE
analysis
sensitive radioenzymatic assay that measures directly the reductive catalysis of N ,N -methylenetetrahydrofolate. The radio-labeled substrate, [ C14]N ,N -methyl enetetrahydrofolate, is prepared by condensation of [C14]formaldehyde with tetrahydrofolate. Its stability is maintained for several months by storage at -80°C in a pH 9.5 buffer
