additional information progressively removes gamma-glutamyl residues at acidic pH from pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate to yield pteroyl-alpha-glutamate (folic acid) and free gamma-glutamic acid, highly specific for the gamma-glutamyl bond, but not for the C-terminal amino acid (leaving group), action on gamma-glutamyl bonds is independent of an N-terminal pteroyl moiety Homo sapiens ?

?
polyglutamylfolate + H2O the ability of the gamma polyglutamate and the inability of the alpha polyglutamate to serve as substrate confirm the requirement for a terminal gamma peptide bond Homo sapiens ?

?
polyglutamylfolate + H2O specificity towards analogs of pteroylglutamyl-gamma-glutamyl-gamma-glutamic acid Homo sapiens ?
-
?
polyglutamylfolate + H2O analogs of the general structure pteroylglutamyl-gamma-glutamyl-gamma-R serve as substrates, low degree of specificity with regard to the nature of the-R group Homo sapiens ?
