The chemical reactions and pathways involving dihydrofolate, the dihydroxylated derivative of folate. [ISBN:0198506732]
Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is a critical coenzyme required for the synthesis of purines, thymidylate, and several amino acids. DHFR inhibition blocks the production of these essential molecules, leading to cell death. DHFR is a validated target for anticancer drugs such as methotrexate and trimethoprim. These drugs are effective in the treatment of various cancers and bacterial infections, respectively. Dihydrofolate reductase is an essential enzyme for cellular metabolism and a target for several anticancer drugs and antibiotics. Dihydrofolate reductase catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is a critical coenzyme required for the synthesis of purines, thymidylate, and several amino acids. The inhibition of DHFR has been shown to block the production of these essential molecules, ultimately leading to cell death. DHFR inhibitors like methotrexate and trimethoprim have proven effective in the treatment of various cancers and bacterial infections, respectively.'
