Synthesis of this compound can be prevented using sulfa drugs, which replace the para-aminobenzoic acid that ordinarily reacts with pteridine to create this substance. THF derivatives of this compound are integral to the synthesis of dUMP. The cancer drug methotrexate works by inhibiting the metabolism of this substance. High levels of this compound interfere with most malaria treatments, and coenzymes of this substance are necessary for synthesizing DNA from purines and thymidine. Along with (*) cyanocobalamin, this vitamin is necessary to synthesize homocysteine. The rate of neural tube defect formation is reduced b

Along with (*) cyanocobalamin, this vitamin is necessary to synthesize homocysteine. The rate of neural tube defect formation is reduced by taking large doses of this water-soluble vitamin in early-term pregnancies. FTP, identify this B-vitamin named for its presence in leafy vegetables, which after B12 has the highest numerical designation among compounds that are actually B-vitamins.
