additional information in Escherichia coli DELTAfolD mutants, the essential function of folD can be replaced by Clostridium perfringens gene fhs. Simultaneous presence of Clostridium perfringens 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase and 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase, CpeFolD and CpeFchA, supports the growth of the DELTAfolD/pCpeFhs strain in M9 minimal medium, and rescues it for its requirements for formate and glycine Clostridium perfringens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism most organisms possess bifunctional FolD [5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (5,10-CH2-THF) dehydrogenase-cyclohydrolase] to generate NADPH and 10-formyltetrahdrofolate (10-CHO-THF) required in various metabolic steps. In addition, some organisms including Clostridium perfringens possess another protein, Fhs (formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase), to synthesize 10-CHO-THF. The presence of the three clostridial proteins, monofunctional 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase FolD, 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase FchA, and 10-formyltetrahdrofolate synthetase Fhs, is required to maintain folate homeostasis in the cell, overview Clostridium perfringens
metabolism the enzyme plays a central role in folate homeostasis and serve as targets for antibacterials Clostridium perfringens
physiological function expression of Clostridium perfringens Fhs and FolD-FchA rescue the photosensitive phenotype of an Escherichia coli DELTAGlyA strain Clostridium perfringens
