Conotruncal heart defects and common variants in maternal and fetal genes in folate, homocysteine, and transsulfuration pathways
AssociationN=4,648Charlotte A. Hobbs et al.(2014)· Birth Defects Research Part A: Clinical and Molecular Teratology

This case-control study of 616 conotruncal heart defect (CTD) case families and 1,645 control families identified 17 maternal and 17 fetal SNPs associated with CTD risk (BFDP ≤0.80). Key findings included 10 maternal SNPs in GCLC (rs572494 with BFDP=0.15), 4 fetal SNPs in TYMS (rs2612101, rs2847607, rs2847326, rs2847324), and evidence that maternal periconceptional folic acid supplementation modified SNP-CTD associations. The study evaluated 921 SNPs across 60 genes in folate, homocysteine, and transsulfuration pathways.

About ENOSF1

This gene can encode a mitochondrial enzyme that is thought to convert L-fuconate to 2-keto-3-deoxy-L-fuconate. This locus was originally identified as the source of antisense RNAs of the adjacent thymidylate synthase gene. Splice variants at this locus may contain an alternate 3' exon that is complementary to the 3'UTR and terminal intron of the thymidylate synthase (TS) RNA and may downregulate TS expression.
