Description
Levomefolinic acid is a natural active form of folic acid used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine among other functions. Levomefolinic acid is used as a treatment and to prevent Folate Deficiency. (In Vitro) :Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) shows interaction with residues Glu406, Ile 418, Lys417 and Tyr453, of which Lys 417 and Tyr 453 play a strong physiological role in the interaction between S1 and ACE and may act as a potential inhibitor of the S1:ACE2 interaction of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.Levomefolic acid (5-MTHF) (50 nM, 72 h) increases intracellular folate metabolite activity by 7-fold better than folic acid by 2-fold in human lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL), and is a good folic acid supplement.
