Record overview

MGPD IDMGP004361
Gene ID10797
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namemethylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NADP+ dependent) 2, methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase
Gene Symbol MTHFD2
SynonymsNMDMC;
Alternate namesbifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase, mitochondrial; NAD-dependent methylene tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase cyclohydrolase;
Chromosome2
Map Location2p13.1
EC Number1.5.1.15
SummaryThis gene encodes a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial bifunctional enzyme with methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase and methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase activities. The enzyme functions as a homodimer and is unique in its absolute requirement for magnesium and inorganic phosphate. Formation of the enzyme-magnesium complex allows binding of NAD. Alternative splicing results in two different transcripts, one protein-coding and the other not protein-coding. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 7. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
