Fig. 5. The pathway of serine participates in the metabolism of nucleotides.

Fig. 5

① serine can provide methyl for dUMP converting to dTMP and contributes to the de novo synthesis of thymine nucleotides; ② mycoplasma can produce thymidine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.4) when consuming serine in the cell culture medium supernatant.
