association between betaine homocysteine s-methyl transferase (bhmt) rs3797546 gene polymorphisms and the risk of nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or cleft palate in south-east population of iran
results no significant difference was found between the groups regarding bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism. the c allele was not associated with ns-cl/p (or = 1.27, 95% ci = 0.85-2.79, p = 0.690). conclusions our data suggested that bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism was not associated with risk/ protection for ns-cl/p in a sample of iranian population. larger studies are required to validate our ...

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
Evolutionary Analyses and Natural Selection of Betaine-Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase (BHMT) and BHMT2 Genes
Betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase (BHMT) and BHMT2 convert homocysteine to methionine using betaine and S-methylmethionine, respectively, as methyl donor substrates. Increased levels of homocysteine in blood are associated with cardiovascular disease. Given their role in human health and nutrition, we identified BHMT and BHMT2 genes and proteins from 38 species of deuterostomes including...
متن کاملBetaine-homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT): genomic sequencing and relevance to hyperhomocysteinemia and vascular disease in humans.
Elevated homocysteine levels have been associated with arteriosclerosis and thrombosis. Hyperhomocysteinemia is caused by altered functioning of enzymes of its metabolism due to either inherited or acquired factors. Betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT) serves, next to methionine synthase, as a facilitator of methyl group donation for remethylation of homocysteine into methionine, and r...
