The common MTHFR deficiencies are usually asymptomatic, although the 677T variant can cause a mildly increased risk of some diseases. [citation needed] For individuals homozygous in the 677T variant, there is a mildly elevated risk of thromboembolism (odds ratio 1.2), [4] and stroke (odds ratio 1.26). [5]

The Methionine Synthase Reductase (MTRR) gene primarily acts in the reductive regeneration of cob(I)alamin (vitamin B12). [10]Cob(I)alamin is a cofactor that maintains activation of the methionine synthase enzyme (MTR) Methionine synthase, linking folate and methionine metabolism.
Levomefolic acid (INN, also known as L-5-MTHF, L-methylfolate and L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate and (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, and (6S)-5-MTHF) is the primary biologically active form of folate used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine.

Researchers have shown that children ex-posed to air pollution perform worse on cogni-tive functioning tests6 and have impaired neurological function7–9 and lower IQ scores10 compared with other ...
C677T or rs1801133 is a genetic variation—a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)—in the MTHFR gene. Among Americans the frequency of T-homozygosity ranges from 1% or less among people of sub-Saharan African descent to 20% or more among Italians and Hispanics. [1] It has been related to schizophrenia [2] Alzheimer's disease [3] depression [4 ...

Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase, cyclohydrolase and formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase 1 (MTHFD1) is a gene located in humans on chromosome 14 [4] that encodes a protein, C-1-tetrahydrofolate synthase, cytoplasmic also known as C1-THF synthase, with three distinct enzymatic activities.
