Relation between some folate-dependent metabolic pathways and dietary folate content in chicks
1989
British Journal of Nutrition
Preserved Fulltext
Responses of several folate-metabolizing pathways to dietary folic acid were studied in 2-week-old chicks. Oxidation of a histidine load to carbon dioxide was impaired in folate-deficient chicks. There was a curvilinear relation between oxidation and dietary folate, and maximum oxidation occurred with 2 mg supplemental folk acid/kg. Hepatic activities of glutamic acid formiminotransferase (EC 2.1.2.5) and glycine N-methyltransferase (EC 2 . 1 . 1 .20) were not affected significantly (P > 0.05)
