You can test for the MTHFR mutation from yourFunctional/Integrative Medicine doctoras well as23andMe. I had my test done by Functional Medicine doctor and it’s a simple blood test. My advice is to work with an MTHFR specialist to help you with your genetic mutations to make sure you are...
First, I’d like to say that I prefer the term “MTHFR gene variation” rather than “mutation.” The word mutation makes it sound like there’s something wrong with the person, while variation is more empowering – and in my opinion, also more accurate....
Homozygous 677 / Normal 1298 (i.e. both parents passed down the 677 mutation) Heterozygous 677 / Homozygous 1298 (one parent passed down the 677 mutation; both passed down the 1298) Homozygous 677 / Heterozygous 1298 (both parents passed down the 677 mutation; one passed down the 1298) ...

677C>T mutation. The amplified fragment of 163 bp was digested for 1 h at 37 °C with 10 units of the restriction enzyme MboII (New England Biolabs). The digestion of the 1298AA genotype (normal) results in five fragments of 56, 31, 30, 28 and 18 bp, the 1298CC genotype (...

MTHFR C677T + MTHFR A1298C = a compound heterozygous mutation The MTHFR nucleotide at position 677 in the gene has two possibilities: C (cytosine) or T (thymine). C at position 677 (leading to an alanine at amino acid 222) is the normal allele. The 677T allele (leading to a valine...

677C > T mutation. The amplified fragment of 163 bp was digested for 2 hours at 37 °C with 10 units of the restriction enzyme MboII (New England Biolabs). The c. 1298A > C abolishes an MboII restriction site. Digestion of the 163 bp fragment of the 1298AA genotype (...
