This gene encodes a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial bifunctional enzyme with methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase and methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase activities.
The enzyme functions as a homodimer and is unique in its absolute requirement for magnesium and inorganic phosphate.
Formation of the enzyme-magnesium complex allows binding of NAD.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms.
This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 7.
