5,10-Methylene-(6R)-tetrahydrofolic acid

Description:
5,10-Methylene-(6R)-tetrahydrofolic acid, also known as 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, is a biologically active form of folate, a B-vitamin essential for various metabolic processes. This compound plays a crucial role in one-carbon metabolism, which is vital for DNA synthesis, repair, and methylation, as well as amino acid metabolism. It is characterized by its ability to donate a methylene group in biochemical reactions, particularly in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine. The (6R) designation indicates the specific stereochemistry of the molecule, which is important for its biological activity. As a water-soluble vitamin, it is involved in the synthesis of nucleotides and is essential for cell division and growth. Deficiencies in folate or its derivatives can lead to various health issues, including anemia and increased risk of neural tube defects during pregnancy. The CAS number 31690-11-6 uniquely identifies this compound in chemical databases, facilitating research and regulatory processes.
