Journal ArticleDOI
The structure and properties of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase from Escherichia coli suggest how folate ameliorates human hyperhomocysteinemia.

TL;DR: Folate derivatives protect wild-type and mutant E. coli enzymes against flavin loss, and protect human MTHFR and the A222V mutant against thermal inactivation, suggesting a mechanism by which folate treatment reduces homocysteine levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural perturbations in the Ala --> Val polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase: how binding of folates may protect against inactivation.
Robert Pejchal,Elizabeth M. Campbell,Brian D. Guenther,Brett W. Lennon,Rowena G. Matthews,Martha L. Ludwig +5 more
TL;DR: The structures of the Ala177Val mutant of E. coli MTHFR and of its complex with the 5,10-dideazafolate analogue, LY309887, are reported and mechanisms by which the mutation may perturb FAD binding are suggested.
