Formimidoyltransferase cyclodeaminase

Formimidoyltransferase cyclodeaminase or formiminotransferase cyclodeaminase (symbol FTCD in humans) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of formiminoglutamate and tetrahydrofolate into formiminotetrahydrofolate and glutamate.

Role in pathology

Mutations of the FTCD gene cause glutamate formiminotransferase deficiency. ^[1]
