Summary
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and formate-tetrahydrofolate ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in tetrahydrofolate interconversion. Is expressed in hypodermis; intestine; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Down syndrome; abdominal aortic aneurysm; cleft lip; developmental cardiac valvular defect; and neural tube defect (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including MTHFD1 (methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase, cyclohydrolase and formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase 1).
