The change from homocysteine to methionine is an SN2 reaction where the methyl group from methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF), located on N-5, is donated. MTHF is a product of MTHFR.

This is a complex reaction as the product, tetrahydrofolate, is a poor leaving group, thus requiring a "supernucleophile" with a protein-bound B-12 vitamin Cobalamin as the methyl carrier.
