Abstract
Summary
1. The effects of dietary amino-pterin upon the aerobic and anaerobic metabolism of choline, betaine aldehyde, and betaine have been investigated. 2. Oxidation of choline and betaine aldehyde, anaerobic conversion of betaine aldehyde to betaine, and both aerobic and anaerobic transmethylation to homocysteine are decreased significantly by dietary aminopterin.
