Difference between Glycine and Tetrahydrofolic acid

Glycine vs. Tetrahydrofolic acid

Glycine (symbol Gly or G) is the amino acid that has a single hydrogen atom as its side chain. Tetrahydrofolic acid, or tetrahydrofolate, is a folic acid derivative.

Similarities between Glycine and Tetrahydrofolic acid

Glycine and Tetrahydrofolic acid have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Serine hydroxymethyltransferase.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is a Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) (Vitamin B6) dependent enzyme which plays an important role in cellular one-carbon pathways by catalyzing the reversible, simultaneous conversions of L-serine to glycine and tetrahydrofolate (THF) to 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (5,10-CH2-THF).
