Anti-MTHFR Antibody

产品说明

一般描述

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase or 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5.1.20; UniProt P42898) is encoded by the MTHFR gene (Gene ID 4524) in human. MTHFR catalyzes the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the predominant circulatory form of folate and carbon donor for the re-methylation of homocysteine to methionine. Defects in MTHFR cause plasma homocysteine elevation or hperhomocysteinaemia, a risk factor for cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular, and coronary heart disease. Multiple transcription start sites and alternative splicing in the MTHFR gene result in two enzyme isoforms.

特异性

Reacts with both isoforms (PMID 12370778).

免疫原

Recombinant protein corresponding to human MTHFR.
