Record overview

MGPD IDMGP001101
Gene ID2356
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namefolylpolyglutamate synthase
Gene Symbol FPGS
Alternate namesfolylpolyglutamate synthase, mitochondrial; folylpoly-gamma-glutamate synthetase; tetrahydrofolate synthase; tetrahydrofolylpolyglutamate synthase;
Chromosome9
Map Location9q34.1
EC Number6.3.2.17
SummaryThis gene encodes the folylpolyglutamate synthetase enzyme. This enzyme has a central role in establishing and maintaining both cytosolic and mitochondrial folylpolyglutamate concentrations and, therefore, is essential for folate homeostasis and the survival of proliferating cells. This enzyme catalyzes the ATP-dependent addition of glutamate moieties to folate and folate derivatives. Alternative splicing results in transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
