Metabolite Identification
Common NameTetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](2)
DescriptionTetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2), also known as tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) or (6S)-H4pteglu2, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tetrahydrofolic acids and derivatives. These are heterocyclic compounds based on the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroic acid skeleton conjugated with at least one L-glutamic acid unit (or a derivative thereof) . Tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) is possibly soluble (in water) and a strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, Tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) can be biosynthesized from tetrahydrofolic acid and L-glutamic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme folylpolyglutamate synthase. In addition, Tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) and L-glutamic acid can be converted into tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](N); which is catalyzed by the enzyme folylpolyglutamate synthase. In cattle, tetrahydrofolyl-[glu](2) is involved in the metabolic pathway called the folate metabolism pathway.

Enzymes

General function:
Coenzyme transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Catalyzes conversion of folates to polyglutamate derivatives allowing concentration of folate compounds in the cell and the intracellular retention of these cofactors, which are important substrates for most of the folate-dependent enzymes that are involved in one-carbon transfer reactions involved in purine, pyrimidine and amino acid synthesis.
Gene Name:
FPGS
Uniprot ID:
A6H751
Molecular weight:

Reactions
Tetrahydrofolic acid + L-Glutamic acid + Adenosine triphosphate → Tetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](2) + ADP + Hydrogen phosphatedetails
Tetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](2) + Adenosine triphosphate + L-Glutamic acid → Tetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](n) + ADP + Hydrogen phosphatedetails
General function:
Not Available
Specific function:
Hydrolyzes the polyglutamate sidechains of pteroylpolyglutamates. Progressively removes gamma-glutamyl residues from pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate to yield pteroyl-alpha-glutamate (folic acid) and free glutamate. May play an important role in the bioavailability of dietary pteroylpolyglutamates and in the metabolism of pteroylpolyglutamates and antifolates. Exhibits either endo- or exopeptidase activity depending upon the tissue of origin. When secreted, it acts primarily as an endopeptidase (By similarity).
