Studies that have investigated the involvement of MTHFD1 rs2236225, MTRR rs1801394, SLC19A1 rs1051266, GNMT rs10948059, DNMT3B rs2424913, and FPGS rs1544105 in CHD development. GNMT, DNMT3B, and FPGS have not been studied in association with CHDs. MTHFD1, trifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase/synthase; MTRR, methyl-tetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase reductase; GNMT, glycine N-methyltransferase; DNMT3B, DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase 3 beta; FPGS, folypolyglutamyl synthase; SLC19A1, solute carrier family 19 member 1; CHDs, congenital heart defects.
