Dihydrohomofolic acid
Dihydrohomofolic acid is a reductase substrate converted to tetrahydrohomofolate, an inhibitor of thymidylate synthase. This mechanism allows it to suppress DNA synthesis, making it a useful research tool for studying antifolate activity and nucleotide metabolism in both cellular and biochemical assays.
