The Bottom Line What is an MTHFR Mutation? MTHFR stands for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, which is an enzyme the body uses to convert homocysteine to methionine. Homocysteine and methionine are amino acids employed for a wide range of purposes in the body, such as building proteins and ens...

Serum levels of homocysteine increase after methionine loading; in dietary deficiency of vitamin B12, folate, and vitamin B6 and because of renal disease and genetic variation of the enzymes essential for the metabolism of homocysteine (e.g., methyl-tetrahydro-folate reductase [MTHFR] and ...
Usually, you won’t show symptoms of smallpox for about 10-12 days after you've been exposed to someone infected with the virus. But the incubation period (the number of days it takes for symptoms to appear after you’re infected with the virus) can be as little as 7 days or as lon...
MTHFR mutation Roughly 30-50% of us carry a mutation in the MTHFR gene, passed down from our parents. The two main functional mutations (also known as polymorphisms) of the gene areMTHFR C677T and MTHFR A1298C(3). Specifics aside, these genetic mutations are collectively known asMTHFR mu...
The development of pharmacogenomics as an interdisciplinary large-scale systematic approach has been reinforced by the introduction of genomic techniques, such as genotyping, gene sequencing, gene expression, genetic epidemiology, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and bioinformatics, and other multiplex ...
