Evaluation of common polymorphisms in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT)

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) catalyses the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a carbon donor for the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine. A common mutation in MTHFR, 677C → T, which converts an alanine (A) to a valine (V) residue...
