Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Activity: Glycine hydroxymethyltransferase, with EC number 2.1.2.1 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [GLYA_HELPG] Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of serine and glycine with tetrahydrofolate (THF) serving as the one-carbon carrier. This reaction serves as the major source of one-carbon groups required for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidylate, methionine, and other important biomolecules. Also exhibits THF-independent aldolase activity toward beta-hydroxyamino acids, producing glycine and aldehydes, via a retro-aldol mechanism. See Also Serine hydroxymethyltransferase
