Metabolite: HMDB0001429 (Phosphate)
Term: Folate Metabolism
Definition: folic acid participates in both the activation of single carbons as well as in the oxidation and reduction of single carbons. folate-dependent single-carbon reactions are important in amino acid metabolism and in biosynthetic pathways leading to dna, rna, membrane lipids, and neurotransmitters.
Parent Term: Biochemical pathway
Parent Definition: A linked series of chemical reactions that occur in a defined order within or between organism cells, and lead to a known function or end product.
