formyltetrahydrofolate

formyltetrahydrofolate
for·myl·tet·ra·hy·dro·fo·late (for″məl-tet″rə-hi″dro-foґlāt) any derivative of tetrahydrofolate that carries a formyl group substitution. The 5-formyl derivative is folinic acid (q.v.); the 10-formyl derivative is important in purine synthesis and in the liver-mediated release of excess one-carbon units.
