Folylpolyglutamate synthase, mitochondrial
BE0000700ProteinHumansFPGS
Catalyzes conversion of folates to polyglutamate derivatives allowing concentration of folate compounds in the cell and the intracellular retention of these cofactors, which are important substrates for most of the folate-dependent enzymes that are involved... It is acted on by 4 drugs in DrugBank.
