Dihydrofolate reductase functions to reduce dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate, a vital process for cellular one-carbon metabolism and cofactor availability.

Evidence for · 2
DHFR2 RNA directly regulates dihydrofolate reductase and its expression level impacts folate one carbon metabolism.
2025 · cited by 2
Paper 6 confirms that dihydrofolate reductase functions in one-carbon metabolism by replenishing tetrahydrofolate, the biologically active form of folate.

The analysis

The claim states that dihydrofolate reductase functions by reducing dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate. Papers 6 and 11 explicitly support the biochemical function of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in reducing dihydrofolate (or related pterins) to the tetrahydro form (tetrahydrofolate) to serve as a cellular cofactor. No retrieved papers refute this fundamental biochemical role.

Mechanism of auranofin toxicity: Inhibition of tetrahydrobiopterin metabolism.
2026 · cited by 0
Paper 11 states that the further metabolism of dihydrobiopterin (and by extension dihydrofolate analogs) to tetrahydro forms is mediated by dihydrofolate reductase.
