Prevalence of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms (C677T, and A1298C) among Saudi children receiving dental treatment
BACKGROUND: Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, the encoded by the MTHFR gene, plays a crucial role in converting the amino acid homocysteine to methionine. Two polymorphisms of the MTHFR gene, C677T and A1298C, reportedly reduce enzyme activity, resulting in hyperhomocysteinemia. Patients with C67...
