Background

Folate, also known as vitamin B9, plays a pivotal role in numerous biological processes, particularly in nucleotide synthesis, methylation reactions, and amino acid metabolism. This essential water-soluble vitamin is crucial for DNA synthesis, repair, and cell division. Given its fundamental role in cellular processes, the study and manipulation of folate biosynthesis pathways hold great significance in the field of biotechnology.

Folate biosynthesis refers to the intricate process by which living organisms synthesize folate de novo within their cells. This process is crucial for maintaining an adequate supply of folate, as many organisms, including humans, cannot produce it directly and rely on dietary sources. For biotechnology companies, understanding and harnessing folate biosynthesis pathways have broad applications, from the development of fortified foods to the production of pharmaceuticals and biofuels.

Folate Biosynthesis Pathway

The folate biosynthesis pathway involves a series of enzymatic reactions that culminate in the production of tetrahydrofolate (THF), the active form of folate. This pathway is highly conserved across various organisms, with minor variations in enzymes and intermediates. Here are the key steps involved in folate biosynthesis:
