Scope note

  • An aminohydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate. In most higher eucaryotic organisms this enzyme also includes METHYLENETETRAHYDROFOLATE DEHYDROGENASE (NADP) and FORMATE-TETRAHYDROFOLATE LIGASE activities.

History note

  • 2004; use METHENYLTETRAHYDROFOLATE CYCLOHYDROLASE (NM) 1980-2003
