Methionine Synthase Reductase (MTRR)

Target
MTRR
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase, Electron transferase
01

Overview

Methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) is an enzyme that maintains the active state of methionine synthase, which is essential for converting homocysteine to methionine. This reaction is crucial for amino acid metabolism, DNA methylation, and the synthesis of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). Mutations in MTRR are associated with homocystinuria.
