Reaction: HCOOH translocated from mitochondrial matrix to cytosol
- in pathway: Metabolism of folate and pterines
Formate (HCOOH) is transported from the mitochondrial matrix to the cytosol, where it is reattached to tetrahydrofolate (THF). The mechanism of transport is thought to be carrier-mediated but no protein has been discovered yet (Tibbetts & Appling 2010).
