Crystal Structure of the NADP+-bound FAD-containing FNR-like Module of Human Methionine Synthase Reductase
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 17892308
Disease
[MTRR_HUMAN] Defects in MTRR are the cause of methylcobalamin deficiency type E (cblE) [MIM:236270]; also known as vitamin B12-responsive homocystinuria or homocystinuria-megaloblastic anemia complementation type E. Patients who are defective in reductive activation of methionine synthase exhibit megaloblastic anemia, developmental delay, hypomethioninemia, and hyperhomocysteinemia, a risk factor in cardiovascular disease and neural tube defects. It is an autosomal recessive disease. Defects in MTRR may be a cause of susceptibility to folate-sensitive neural tube defects (FS-NTD) [MIM:601634]. The most common NTDs are open spina bifida (myelomeningocele) and anencephaly. Genetic defects in MTRR may affect the risk of spina bifida via the maternal rather than the embryonic genotype.[1][2][3]
Function
[MTRR_HUMAN] Involved in the reductive regeneration of cob(I)alamin cofactor required for the maintenance of methionine synthase in a functional state.
