TK), 5-FU is activated to 5-fluorodeoxyuridine monophosphate (5-FdUMP). Potent inhibition of thymidylate synthase (TS) by 5-FdUMP is considered critical for 5-FU cytotoxicity. TS catalyzes the rate-limiting step of DNA synthesis, such as the conversion of dUMP into dTMP. Optimal TS function requires the formation of a covalent ternary complex consisting of TS, the folate cofactor 5,10-methylenetetra-hydrofolate (CH2THF), and 5-FdUMP. Inadequate cellular levels of 5,10-methyle-netetrahydrofolate reduce the stability of the ternary complex and consequently the inhibition of TS by 5-FdUMP. For this reason, 5-FU is administered in association with folinic acid, a precursor of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate [40]. [Pg.290]

Fig. 14.10 Folate metabolism and role of MTHFR. Genetically reduced MTHFR activity affects the distribution between folate species required for protein and DNA synthesis. Higher availabil ity of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (CH2THF) potentiates the TS inhibition by 5-FdUMP, the active metabolite of 5-FU.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) catalyzes the NAD(P)H-dependent reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (CH2-THF) to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (CH3-THF). CH3-THF then serves as a methyl donor for the synthesis of methionine. The MTHFR proteins and genes from mammalian liver and E. coli have been characterized,12"15 and MTHFR genes have been identified in S. cerevisiae16 and other organisms. The MTHFR of E. coli (MetF) is a homotetramer of 33-kDa subunits that prefers NADH as reductant,12 whereas mammalian MTHFRs are homodimers of 77-kDa subunits that prefer NADPH and are allosterically inhibited by AdoMet.13,14 Mammalian MTHFRs have a two-domain structure the amino-terminal domain shows 30% sequence identity to E. coli MetF, and is catalytic the carboxyterminal domain has been implicated in AdoMet-mediated inhibition of enzyme activity.13,14... [Pg.19]

In living systems, folinic acid can be synthesized ultimately from folic acid by reduction to tetrahydrofolic acid followed by addition of a 1-carbon fragment to the molecule (N5.N1°-methylenetetrahydrofolate, V). After a 2-step oxidation, the formyl group resides either at the N5 or N10 position or as an equilibrium mixture. The essential reactions are summarized below 32... [Pg.330]

Recently, the enzymatic formation of folinic acid has been utilized to synthesize radioactively labeled products.34 The preparation of 5-formyl tetrahydrofolate, 9,3, 5 -3H and 5-formyl-14C-tetrahydrofolate starts with tritiated folic acid, which is reduced to dihydrofolate, incubated in the presence of formaldehyde, dihydrofolate reductase, and NADPH, and finally incubated with 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate dihydrogenase.
