Case-control study of 501 young stroke patients and 1,211 controls examining 58 polymorphisms in 17 genes involved in methionine metabolism. Multiple logistic regression identified four independent risk factors for early-onset ischaemic stroke: rs10037045 BHMT (OR 1.38, p=0.033), rs682985 BHMT2 (OR 1.46, p=0.017), rs1051319 CBS (OR 3.75, p<0.0001), and rs202680 FOLH1 (OR 3.00, p<0.0001). Haplotype analyses identified significant associations with BHMT, CBS, FOLH1, MTR, PON2, TCN2 and TYMS haplotypes and stroke risk.
About MTRR
This gene encodes a member of the ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase (FNR) family of electron transferases. This protein functions in the synthesis of methionine by regenerating methionine synthase to a functional state. Because methionine synthesis requires methyl-group transfer by a folate donor, activity of the encoded enzyme is important for folate metabolism and cellular methylation. Mutations in this gene can cause homocystinuria-megaloblastic anemia, cbl E type. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
