MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase), DNA Mutation Analysis

Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR), DNA Mutation Analysis is a genetic test that identifies mutations in the MTHFR gene, which encodes an enzyme involved in folate metabolism.

Mutations in the MTHFR gene can result in decreased enzyme activity, leading to impaired folate metabolism and elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood.

Elevated homocysteine levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, neural tube defects, and other health conditions.
