What is Methionine Synthase Reductase A66G Polymorphism?
Methionine synthase reductase regenerates the active form of methionine synthase by reductive methylation of its cobalamin cofactor. The A66G polymorphism may alter reductase efficiency, influencing the rate at which methionine synthase is restored to active service and thereby affecting one-carbon metabolism under conditions of oxidative stress or suboptimal B12.
