Gene Information

mouse ... DHFR(13361)

General description

Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is a member of the reductase family of enzymes that is ubiquitously expressed in all organisms. The gene encoding this protein is localized on mouse chromosome 13.

Biochem/physiol Actions

DHFR catalyzes the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-dependent reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate, and it is essential for the synthesis of thymidylate, purines and several amino acids. Expression of methotrexate (MTX)-resistant variants of DHFR in normal hematopoietic cells is a potential strategy to permit administration of larger doses of MTX by alleviating drug toxicity in normal cells and tissues that are drug sensitive.

Physical form

1 mg/mL solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) containing 0.1 M NaCl, 2 mM DTT and 10% glycerol.

Preparation Note

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
