    Dihydrofolic acid (conjugate base dihydrofolate) (DHF) is a folic acid (vitamin B 9) derivative which is converted to tetrahydrofolic acid by dihydrofolate reductase. [1] Since tetrahydrofolate is needed to make both purines and pyrimidines, which are building blocks of DNA and RNA, dihydrofolate reductase is targeted by various drugs to prevent nucleic acid synthesis.
