A Common Polymorphism in the MTHFD1 Gene Is a Modulator of Risk of Congenital Heart Disease
Several environmental and genetic factors may influence the risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs), which can have a substantial impact on pediatric morbidity and mortality. We investigated the association of polymorphisms in the genes of the folate and

Metagenome Assembled Genome of a Novel Verrucomicrobial Methanotroph From Pantelleria Island
Verrucomicrobial methanotrophs are a group of aerobic bacteria isolated from volcanic environments. They are acidophiles, characterized by the presence of a particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) and a XoxF-type methanol dehydrogenase (MDH ...

Sex-Specific Metabolic Effects of Dietary Folate Withdrawal in Wild-Type and Aldh1l1 Knockout Mice
ALDH1L1 (10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase), an enzyme of folate metabolism, is highly expressed in the liver. It regulates the overall flux of folate-bound one-carbon groups by converting 10-formyltetrahydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate and CO2 in a ...

Expression and Role of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Dehydrogenase 1 Like (MTHFD1L) in Bladder Cancer
Cancer cells utilize vitamin folate to fulfill their excessive demand for nucleotides and amino acids. Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), an enzyme involved in folate metabolism converts dihydrofolate into tetrahydrofolate, which is required for the de novo
