應用
Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is involved in the synthesis of purines, thymidine and glycine in folate metabolism. DHFR, from bovine liver, is used for methotrexate analysis . DHFR is useful to study various cancers such as sarcomas, leukemias and head and neck cancers .
生化／生理作用
Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) reduces dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid, using NADPH as an electron donor. The binding of antitumor agents, such as methotrexate, to DHFR prevents the formation of reduced folates, which are essential for DNA synthesis .
單位定義
1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which converts 1 μmol 7,8-dihydrofolate and NADPH to 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate and NADP per minute at pH 6.5 and 25 °C

Methotrexate was determined by the homogeneous enzyme immunoassay (EMIT) with the Multistat and CentrifiChem centrifugal analyzers and by the enzyme inhibition assay with use of the Multistat centrifugal analyzer. With both methods, the standard curve extends from 0.2 to 2.0

Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR; EC 1.5.1.3) is required in folate metabolism for the synthesis of purines, thymidine, and glycine. Although there have been several reports of induction of DHFR enzyme by methotrexate (MTX), a drug that competitively inhibits DHFR, there are

One of the most important challenges in systems biology is to understand how cells respond to genetic and environmental perturbations. Here we show that the yeast DHFR-PCA, coupled with high-resolution growth profiling (DHFR-qPCA), is a straightforward assay to study the

Plasmodium falciparum causes the deadliest form of human malaria. Its virulence is attributed to its ability to modify the infected RBC and to evade human immune attack through antigenic variation. Antigenic variation is achieved through tight regulation of antigenic switches
