RC STRAIN=ATCC 14990 / DSM 20044 / CIP 81.55 / NCTC 11047; RX PubMed=7768789; DOI=10.1128/jb.177.11.2965-2970.1995; RA Dale G.E., Broger C., Hartman P.G., Langen H., Page M.G.P., Then R.L., RA Stueber D.; RT "Characterization of the gene for the chromosomal dihydrofolate reductase RT (DHFR) of Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 14990: the origin of the RT trimethoprim-resistant S1 DHFR from Staphylococcus aureus?"; RL J. Bacteriol. 177:2965-2970(1995). CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the reductive methylation of 2'-deoxyuridine-5'- CC monophosphate (dUMP) to 2'-deoxythymidine-5'-monophosphate (dTMP) while CC utilizing 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (mTHF) as the methyl donor and CC reductant in the reaction, yielding dihydrofolate (DHF) as a by- CC product. This enzymatic reaction provides an intracellular de novo CC source of dTMP, an essential precursor for DNA biosynthesis. CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A884}. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=(6R)-5,10-methylene-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + dUMP = 7,8- CC dihydrofolate + dTMP; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:12104, ChEBI:CHEBI:15636, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:57451, ChEBI:CHEBI:63528, ChEBI:CHEBI:246422; CC EC=2.1.1.45; Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A884}; CC -!- PATHWAY: Pyrimidine metabolism; dTTP biosynthesis. CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A884}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A884}. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A884}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the thymidylate synthase family. Bacterial-type CC ThyA subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
