Dihydrofolate reductase (P00375)

Uniprot ID P00375
Protein Name Dihydrofolate reductase
Gene Name Dhfr
Species Mus musculus (Mouse)
Signal peptide(a) N Secretome P(b) 0.591
Function Key enzyme in folate metabolism. Contributes to the de novo mitochondrial thymidylate biosynthesis pathway (PubMed:25980602). Catalyzes an essential reaction for de novo glycine and purine synthesis, and for DNA precursor synthesis (PubMed:25980602). Binds its own mRNA. .

(a) The Signal peptide D-score cutoff for "YES"(having signal peptide) is 0.45.
(b) Non-classically secreted proteins should obtain an NN-score(Neural Networks score) exceeding the normal threshold of 0.5, but not at the same time be predicted to contain a signal peptide.
