Microbial Metabolic Capacity for Intestinal Folate Production and Modulation of Host Folate Receptors

Microbial Metabolic Capacity for Intestinal Folate Production and Modulation of Host Folate Receptors

Microbial metabolites, including B complex vitamins contribute to diverse aspects of human health. Folate, or vitamin B9, refers to a broad category of biomolecules that include pterin, para-aminobenzoic acid (pABA), and glutamate subunits. Folates are required for DNA synthesis and epigenetic regul...
