Phosphoribosyl-N-formylglycineamide (or FormylGlycinAmideRibotide, FGAR) is a biochemical intermediate in the formation of

cobalamin[4] also contain fragments derived from FGAR.[5]

FGAR is formed when the enzyme

10-formyltetrahydrofolate to glycineamide ribonucleotide (GAR) in reaction EC 2.1.2.2:[6]

GAR + 10-formyltetrahydrofolate → FGAR + tetrahydrofolate

The biosynthesis pathway next converts FGAR to an

5'-phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine (FGAM) in a reaction that also requires ATP:[6]

FGAR + ATP + glutamine + H2O → FGAM + ADP + glutamate + Pi
