…MTR/MTRR, BHMT, AHCY, CBS, and SUOX. Folate and B12 support remethylation; choline can provide betaine for the BHMT route. Transsulfuration connects homocysteine with cysteine and glutathione, and sulfur compounds pass through additional st…

…so called: Folate Hydrolase 1
Folate handling begins before remethylation
Dr. Purser’s genetic chapters include FOLH1 in folate handling. The earlier genetics reference explains its role in breaking down polyglutamated food folates into for…
… MTHFR contributes to production of the folate form used in remethylation; MTR and MTRR connect that process to B12. His course asks readers to consider the whole cluster rather than build a plan around C677T or A1298C alone.

Keeping the remethylation system working
Dr. Purser teaches MTRR alongside MTR because the pathway depends on maintaining an active B12-dependent enzyme system, not simply consuming a nutrient…
…. Purser’s teaching follows homocysteine in two directions: remethylation toward methionine and transsulfuration toward cysteine-related chemistry. Folate/B12 and MTR/MTRR belong in the first discussion; CBS/CTH and glutathione-building mat…
…fur can move toward cysteine. The recycling route is called remethylation. The route toward cysteine is called transsulfuration.
Folate and B12 help with one recycling route. Betaine, which can come from choline, helps with another. CBS an…

Pathway names describe different jobs
Remethylation and transsulfuration are connected, but they are not the same process. Dr. Purser discusses MTHFR alongside CBS, MTR, MTRR and SHMT1 because these genes participate i…
