Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). 5,10-Methylenetetrahydrofolate is reduced to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate by methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, a cytoplasmic, NAD(P)-dependent enzyme. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate is utilized by methionine synthase to convert homocysteine to methionine. The enzymatic mechanism is a ping-pong bi-bi mechanism, in which NAD(P)+ release precedes the binding of methylenetetrahydrofolate and the acceptor is free FAD. The family includes the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase EC:1.7.99.5 from prokaryotes and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase EC: 1.5.1.20 from eukaryotes. The bacterial enzyme is a homotetramer and NADH is the preferred reductant while the eukaryotic enzyme is a homodimer and NADPH is the preferred reductant. In humans, there are several clinically significant mutations in MTHFR that result in hyperhomocysteinemia, which is a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease.

methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, eukaryotic type; The enzyme activities methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5.1.20) and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (FADH) (EC 1.7.99.5) differ in that 1.5.1.20 (assigned in many eukaryotes) is defined to use NADP+ as an acceptor, while 1.7.99.5 (assigned in many bacteria) is flexible with respect to the acceptor; both convert 5-methyltetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate. From a larger set of proteins assigned as 1.5.1.20 and 1.7.99.5, this model describes the subset of proteins found in eukaryotes and designated 1.5.1.20. This protein is an FAD-containing flavoprotein. [Biosynthesis of cofactors, prosthetic groups, and carriers, Folic acid]
