Molecular structure of a 5,10‐methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase from the silkworm Bombyx mori

The enzyme 5,10‐methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (MTHFD) is essential for the production of certain amino acids (glycine, serine, and methionine) and nucleic acids (thymidylate and purine). Here, we identified a cDNA encoding this enzyme from the silkworm Bombyx mori. The recombinant B. mori...
