Vitamin B12 is an important cofactor for two enzymatic reactions:<
- Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, which aids in the breakdown of branched chain amino acids and odd fatty acids.
- Methionine synthase, which is required for methyl transfer reactions, including the folic acid-dependent conversion of homocysteine to methionine for protein production.
Daily supplementation of 400 mcg of folic acid during the first trimester helps reduce neural tube defects by approximately 50%. Because folic acid is a methyl group donor, research indicates that neural tube defects can result from a methylation defect. Similarly, a decrease in the availability of vitamin B12 or folic acid results in an accumulation of homocysteine, which can inhibit methyl transfer reactions. -
