描述
5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate, also known as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, (l-glu)-(R)-isomer or L-methylfolate, is a member of the class of compounds known as tetrahydrofolic acids. Tetrahydrofolic acids are heterocyclic compounds based on the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroic acid skeleton conjugated with at least one L-glutamic acid unit. 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate can be found in a number of food items such as radish (variety), millet, devilfish, and babassu palm, which makes 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
