Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase or 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5.1.20; UniProt P42898) is encoded by the MTHFR gene (Gene ID 4524) in human. MTHFR catalyzes the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrof
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase or 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5.1.20; UniProt P42898) is encoded by the MTHFR gene (Gene ID 4524) in human. MTHFR catalyzes the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the predominant circulatory form of folate and carbon donor for the re-methylation of homocysteine to methionine. Defects in MTHFR cause plasma homocysteine elevation or hperhomocysteinaemia, a risk factor for cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular, and coronary heart disease. Multiple transcription start sites and alternative splicing in the MTHFR gene result in two enzyme isoforms.
Protein Jumonji (Jarid2), also known as Jumonji/ARID domain-containing protein 2, and encoded by the gene name Jarid2 is a member of the JARID2 family. Jarid 2 is a regulator of histone methyltransferase complexes, and therefore plays an essential ro
The Gbeta5 (GNB5 guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), beta 5) is a G protein subunit present predominantly in the central nervous system. This protein appears to be expressed in two forms, one found in the brain of 39 kDa and one found in

E6AP/UB3A is an interesting E3 ubiquitin protein ligase with newly discovered alternative functions as well. It is the founding member of the HECT (Homologous to E6AP C terminus) family of ubiquitin ligases and recent research is shedding new light o
Ras-related protein Rab32 is a mitochondrion localized protein that acts as an anchoring protein for protein kinase A regulatory subunit which then plays a role in mitochondrial fission and mitochondrial dynamics of growth and recycling. Rab32 is als
