Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.1.0)
Enables formate-tetrahydrofolate ligase activity. Involved in chordate embryonic development; formate biosynthetic process; and tetrahydrofolate interconversion. Located in mitochondrion. Is active in mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; embryo ectoderm; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study neural tube defect. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neural tube defect. Orthologous to human MTHFD1L (methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (NADP+ dependent) 1 like).
