Carboxypeptidase G and pterin deaminase metabolic pathways degrade folic acid in Variovorax sp. F1

Abstract Background Folic acid (FA) is a synthetic vitamin (B9) and the oxidized form of a metabolic cofactor that is essential for life. Although the biosynthetic mechanisms of FA are established, its environmental degradation mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The present study aimed to iden...
