Structural basis for the regulation of human 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase by phosphorylation and S-adenosylmethionine inhibition

The human enzyme MTHFR links the folate and methionine cycles, which are essential for the biosynthesis of nucleotides and proteins. Here, the authors present the crystal structure and biochemical analysis of human MTHFR, providing molecular insights into its function and regulation in higher eukary...
