ABOUT FOLIC ACID DIETARY SUPPLEMENT FOLATE DERIVATIVE( B9 ) WATER SOLUBLE VITAMIN. MECHANISM OF ACTION OF FOLIC ACID FOLIC ACID REDUCED BY ENZYMES FOLATE REDUCTASE AND DIHYDROFOLATE REDUCTASE AND FORMS DIHYDROFOLIC ACID TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID RESPECTIVELY. TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID ACTS AS A COENZYME WHICH MEDIATES A NUMBER OF ONE CARBON TRANSFER REACTIONS BY CARRYING A METHYL GROUP AS AN ADDUCT. IT INVOLVES A NUMBER OF REACTIONS SUCH AS 1).CONVERSION OF HOMOCYSTEINE TO METHIONINE. 2).SYNTHESIS OF THYMIDYLATE WHICH IS AN ESSENTIAL CONSTITUENT OF DNA FROM METHYLENE-TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID. 3). CONVERSION OF SERINE TO GLYCINE BY TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID AND FORMS METHYLENE-TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID. 4).TO INTRODUCE CARBON UNITS AT POSITION 2 AND 8 DURING DE NOVO PURINE SYNTHESIS REQUIRES FORMYL-TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID AND METHENYL-TETRAHYDROFOLIC ACID.5).GENERATION AND UTILIZATION OF "FORMATE POOL". 6).FOR MEDIATING FORMINO GROUP TRANSFER IN HISTIDINE METABOLISM. FOLIC ACID IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN NORMAL
