    Summary
    Predicted to enable 5-formyltetrahydrofolate cyclo-ligase activity; double-stranded DNA binding activity; and heterocyclic compound binding activity. Predicted to be involved in folic acid-containing compound biosynthetic process and tetrahydrofolate interconversion. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to several human genes including MTHFS (methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
