ATP + formate + tetrahydrofolate Gallus gallus two different physiological roles: 1. Functions anabolically in most organisms to activate formate via the forward reaction, and brings it into the one-carbon metabolic pool as N10-formyltetrahydrofolate, 2. In purine-fermenting bacteria the enzyme probably functions catabolically in the terminal step of the purine degradative pathway. This reaction may be responsible for ATP production in these organisms ?
