Abstract excerpt
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) catalyzes the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, used to methylate homocysteine in methionine biosynthesis. Methionine can be activated by ATP to give rise to the universal methyl donor, S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet). Previously, a chimeric MTHFR (Chimera-1) comprised of the yeast Met13p N-terminal catalytic domain and the...
