A Novel Homozygous Non-sense Mutation in the Catalytic Domain of MTHFR Causes Severe 5,10-Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Deficiency

Background: Severe 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency is a heterogeneous metabolic disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Pathogenic mutations in MTHFR gene have been associated with severe MTHFR deficiency. The clinical presentation of MTHFR deficiency is high...
