In enzymology, a thymidylate synthase (FAD) () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + dUMP + FADH2 dTMP + tetrahydrofolate + FAD The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, dUMP, and FADH2, whereas its 3 products are dTMP, tetrahydrofolate, and FAD. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, to be specific those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate,FADH2:dUMP C-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include Thy1, and ThyX. This enzyme participates in pyrimidine metabolism and one carbon pool by folate. Most organisms, including humans, use the thyA- or TYMS-encoded classic thymidylate synthase whereas some bacteria use the similar flavin-dependent thymidylate synthase (FDTS) instead. ==Structural studies== As of late 2007, 3 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes , , and . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thymidylate synthase (FAD)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
