additional information under Vmax conditions, the turnover numbers for the NADPH-linked reductions of the quinonoid forms of 6,7-dimethyldihydropterin, dihydrobiopterin, and dihydrofolate are all about the same as that for the reduction of methylenetetrahydrofolate. The reduction of quinonoid dihydropterins is inhibited by S-adenosyl-L-methionine and dihydropteroylhexaglutamate Sus scrofa ?
