Description

10-Formyltetrahydrofolic acid is a form of tetrahydrofolate that has been shown to have an irreversible enzyme activity. It is a sulfa drug that is used in the treatment of folate deficiency, primarily in pregnant women and infants. 10-Formyltetrahydrofolic acid has been shown to be effective in the prevention of neural tube defects and colon cancer, as it prevents the formation of pro-apoptotic proteins by regulating energy metabolism. 10-Formyltetrahydrofolic acid also inhibits dehydrogenase, which aids in its regulation of energy metabolism. 10-Formyltetrahydrofolic acid can be synthesized from formaldehyde and tetrahydrofolate using transfer reactions. This process is catalyzed by enzymes called synthetases. Titration calorimetry can be used to measure the concentration of this product through the measurement of heat released during a chemical reaction such as
