Published in 2019 at "Journal of Human Genetics"

DOI: 10.1038/s10038-019-0672-7

Abstract: Both betaine homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT) and cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) are major enzymes in the metabolism of plasma homocysteine (Hcy). Abnormal methylation levels of BHMT and CBS are positively associated with Hcy levels. The present study… read more here.
