AIMS: The C677T variant in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase ( MTHFR ; EC 1.5.1.20) enzyme, a key player in the folate metabolic pathway, has been associated with increased risk of migraine with aura. Other genes encoding molecular components of this pathway include methionine synthase ( MTR ; EC 2.1.1.13) and methionine synthase reductase ( MTRR ; EC 2.1.1.135) among others. We performed a haplotype...
