Identification
Name:5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid
Description5-methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid is a member of the chemical class known as Biopterins and Derivatives. These are coenzymes containing a 2-amino-pteridine-4-one derivative.5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate is formed under reaction between carbonyl group of 5-methyltetrahydropteroate and amine group on one end of three replicates of glutamate. It is involved in several pathways such as tetrahydrofolate biosynthesis and methionine biosynthesis. (YMDB00518)
