5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Description
5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-MTHF) is an active folate metabolite. It plays an important role in the synthesis of methionine from homocysteine by donating methyl group. 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid-(glutamic acid-13C5) is an isotope of vitamin B9 wherein all the five glutamate carbons are replaced by 13C6 carbon.
Supplements
5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid is a biologically active form of folic acid. 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid is a methylated derivate of tetrahydrofolate. 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid is the predominant natural dietary folate and the principal form of folate in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid.
Mechanism of Action
Prefolic A, also known as 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, is a biologically active form of folic acid that functions, in conjunction with vitamin B12, as a methyl-group donor involved in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine. Methyl folate is an active metabolite of folic acid. Vitamin supplement in health care products.
Shipping & Storage Condition
