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 MTHFD1
This gene encodes a protein that possesses three distinct enzymatic activities, 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase, 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase and 10-formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase. Each of these activities catalyzes one of three sequential reactions in the interconversion of 1-carbon derivatives of tetrahydrofolate, which are substrates for methionine, thymidylate, and de novo purine syntheses. The trifunctional enzymatic activities are conferred by two major domains, an aminoterminal portion containing the dehydrogenase and cyclohydrolase activities and a larger synthetase domain.
