“It is indeed probable that the increased availability of the preferred substrate of pteroylpolyglutamate synthetase, i.e. tetrahydrofolate , enhances conversion of folate into coenzyme forms.”
“Dihydrofolate, tetrahydrofolate , 5-formyl tetrahydrofolate, 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate, aminopterin, and amethopterin are inhibitors of folate influx.”

“When the concentrations of folate present in the growth medium exceed 1.4 x 10-9 m, the specific activity of 10-formyl tetrahydrofolate synthetase and dihydrofolate reductase is decreased, possibly through repression of the enzyme.”
