Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Elevated plasma total homocysteine (tHcy), a risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), is due to defects in genes encoding for enzymes involved in tHcy metabolism or from inadequate status of vitamins involved in tHcy disposal. Methionine synthase (MS), a vitamin B(12)-dependent enzyme, catalyses the remethylation of homocysteine to methionine using a methyl group donated by...
