Question

Write a balanced equation for the synthesis of thymidylate from deoxyuridylate coupled with the synthesis of glycine​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Tetrahydrofolate (THF) or tetrahydrofolic acid is a derivative of Vitamin B9 (folic acid or pteroyl-L-glutamic acid), a water-soluble vitamin that serves as a coenzyme for metabolic reactions involving amino acids and nucleic acids. It participates in important single-carbon transfer reactions often referred to as one-carbon metabolism and in the synthesis of several amino acids such as serine and methionine, purines and thymine, a pyrimidine. The single carbon transfer reactions are important in metabolism and regulation of gene expression.
