Raymond L. Blakley* and Lennie Coceo abstract: Degradation of 7, 8-dihydrofolate (H2folate) in the presence of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) has been shown due not to an oxygenase activity of the reductase as previously reported but to dismutationof H2folate to folate and 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydrofolate (H4folate). The reaction can be followed spectrophotometrically or by analysis of the reaction mixture by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The products havealso been isolated and characterized. Oxygen uptake during the reaction is much less than stoi-chiometric with H2folate disappearance and is attributed to autoxidation of the H4folate formed. The dismutation activity is a property of highly purified Streptococcus faecium DHFR isoenzyme 2 (but not isoenzyme 1) and of Lactobacillus casei DHFR, but not of bovine liver DHFR. The activity is de-pendent on tightly bound NADP+ and/or NADPH. Removal of the nucleotide results in loss of dismutation activity, which is restored by adding NADP+ or NADPH. MaximumactivityDihydrofolate reductase (5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydrofolate: NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.5. 1.3; DHFR) normally catalyzes the reduction of 7, 8-dihydrofolate (H2folate) to tetrahydrofolate (H4folate) by NADPH. However, Poe (1973) reported that DHFR from Escherichia coliMB 1428 also catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of H2folate at the C9-N10 bond and ten-tatively identified one of the products by proton magnetic resonance as 7, 8-dihydropterin-6-carboxaldehyde. The reac-tion proposed was
