Target/Specificity | This MTHFR antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 266-292 amino acids from the Central region of human MTHFR. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | MTHFR Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | MTHFR (HGNC:7436) |
---|---|
Function | Catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a cosubstrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine (PubMed:29891918). Represents a key regulatory connection between the folate and methionine cycles (Probable). |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. Genetic variation in this gene influences susceptibility to occlusive vascular disease, neural tube defects, colon cancer and acute leukemia, and mutations in this gene are associated with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.
