General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase presents reacts with both NADPH and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate at the si face. The reaction involves successive hydride transfers to and from the flavin cofactor. NADP+ dissociates before 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate binds the reduced enzyme Sus scrofa
