Commercially available 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-CHO-H4PteGlu) is chemically prepared in a reaction that introduces an asymmetric center at the 6 carbon, and hence is the mixture of diastereomers differing in chirality about this position.

The methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase activity of the bifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase domain catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate. We have observed that in the presence of this domain, 10-formyltetrahydrofola
