ID DYR9_ECOLX Reviewed; 177 AA. AC Q59397; DT 01-NOV-1997, integrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. DT 01-NOV-1996, sequence version 1. DT 16-JUN-2009, entry version 43. DE RecName: Full=Dihydrofolate reductase type 9; DE EC=1.5.1.3; DE AltName: Full=Dihydrofolate reductase type IX; GN Name=dhfrIX; OS Escherichia coli. OG Plasmid. OC Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacteriales; OC Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. OX NCBI_TaxID=562; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [GENOMIC DNA]. RC STRAIN=3926; RX MEDLINE=92060953; PubMed=1659308; RA Jansson C., Skoeld O.; RT "Appearance of a new trimethoprim resistance gene, dhfrIX, in RT Escherichia coli from swine."; RL Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 35:1891-1899(1991). CC -!- FUNCTION: Confers trimethoprim resistance. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + NADP(+) = 7,8- CC dihydrofolate + NADPH. CC -!- PATHWAY: Cofactor biosynthesis; tetrahydrofolate biosynthesis; CC tetrahydrofolate from dihydrofolate: step 1/1. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer (By similarity). CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The reaction catalyzed by this enzyme represents an CC essential step for de novo glycine and purine synthesis, DNA CC precursor synthesis, and for the conversion of dUMP to dTMP. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the dihydrofolate reductase family. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) domain.
