Enzyme Information

2.1.1.45
Thymidylate synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q27793
5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + dUMP = dihydrofolate + dTMP.
1.5.1.3
Dihydrofolate reductase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q27793
5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + NADP(+) = 7,8-dihydrofolate + NADPH.
-!- The enzyme from animals and some micro-organisms also slowly reduces folate to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate. -!- Formerly EC 1.5.1.4.
