SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionDihydropterin-CH2OH (6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin) is the precursor to dihydropterin-CH2OH-PP (6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin diphosphate) in the 6-hydroxymethyl-dihydropterin diphosphate biosynthesis pathway. 6-Hydroxymethyl-dihydropterin diphosphate is the pterin precursor for the biosynthesis of several important cofactors, including tetrahydrofolate, methanopterin and sarcinapterin.
