γ-irradiated, BioReagent, suitable for hybridoma, 50 ×, lyophilized powder
Biochemical and Physiological Mechanisms
Folic acid antagonist. Aminopterin is actively transported into cells by the folate transporter. In the cell, it is converted to a high molecular weight polyglutamate metabolite by folylpolyglutamate synthase that, in turn, binds to dihydrofolate reduct
