Abstract excerpt
Methionine synthase reductase (MSR) is a diflavin oxidoreductase that transfers electrons from NADPH to oxidized cobalamin and plays a vital role in repairing inactive cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase. MSR deficiency is a recessive genetic disorder affecting folate and methionine metabolism and is characterized by elevated levels of plasma homocysteine. In this study, we have examined the molecular basis...
