5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid, 5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid (folinic acid), and folic acid requirements of normal and Rous sarcoma virus-infected chicken fibroblasts

Normal and Rous sarcoma virus-infected chicken fibroblasts proliferate maximally in a culture medium containing a physiological (10 ng/ml) concentration of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid or folinic acid (5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid), while their maximal proliferation requires a hyperphysiological (10...

Zusammenfassung:Normal and Rous sarcoma virus-infected chicken fibroblasts proliferate maximally in a culture medium containing a physiological (10 ng/ml) concentration of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid or folinic acid (5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid), while their maximal proliferation requires a hyperphysiological (1000 ng/ml) concentration of folic acid. The normal and Rous-infected fibroblasts do not differ in their requirements for 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, folinic acid, or folic acid.
