MTHFR - methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About MTHFR
This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 21 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in lung (RPKM 7.5), thyroid (RPKM 7.2) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon Cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
