1. The response ofLactobacillus caseiwas measured for a number of the monoglutamyl forms of folate derivatives.2. At the concentrations of folate commonly used in the assay of folate vitamin in foods the response ofL. caseito folic acid, (pteroyl glutamic acid) and 5-formyl-tetrahydrofolic acid was similar, but 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolic acid gave as little as half the response of folic acid.3. The response was modified by altering pH but not by concentration of ascorbate.4. These results have implications for the assays of foods for folate where mixtures of folate derivatives are present.5. A modified procedure is suggested in which the monoglutamates give similar responses.

Vitamin K - is a fat-soluble vitamin which plays an important role in the metabolism of bone and connective tissue, maintenance blood clotting properties. Vitamin K is involved in carboxylation of glutamic acid residues in the polypeptide chains of 14 human proteins, providing them with the necessary functional properties. Lack of vitamin K-dependent carboxylation of these proteins leads to changes in their biological activity. In this literature review we cover the mechanisms of vitamin K-dependent carboxylation and none bone actions of osteocalcin and matrix Gla-protein with different degrees of carboxylation.
