In enzymology, a methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NAD+) (EC 1.5.1.15) is an enzyme that catalyzes a chemical reaction.[1]

5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + NAD+ 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate + NADH + H+

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate, NADH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NAD+). This enzyme participates in one carbon pool by folate.[2]

Structural studies

[edit]

As of late 2007, two structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1EDZ and 1EE9.[3]
