General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine.

Catalytic activity

5-methyltetrahydrofolate + NAD(P)+ = 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + NAD(P)H.

Cofactor

FAD By similarity.

Enzyme regulation

Allosterically regulated by S-adenosylmethionine By similarity.

Pathway

One-carbon metabolism; tetrahydrofolate interconversion.

Subunit structure

Homodimer By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase family.
