Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including magnesium ion binding activity; methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase activity; and methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity. Predicted to be involved in tetrahydrofolate interconversion. Predicted to act upstream of or within one-carbon metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human MTHFD2 (methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NADP+ dependent) 2, methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
