What’s searchable?BHMT helps recycle homocysteine into methionine using betaine. It is a different route from the folate and B12 pathway. Also called: BHMT08, Betaine-Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase Another route through the homocysteine map BHMT is part of…
COL5A1 encodes one component of type V collagen, which helps organize collagen fibers. It connects to the strength and structure of tendons, skin and other connective tissues. Also called: Collagen Type V Alpha 1 Chain Collagen structure, t…
FOLH1 helps break down folate from food so it can be absorbed. This is different from the MTHFR step. Also called: Folate Hydrolase 1 Folate handling begins before remethylation Dr. Purser’s genetic chapters include FOLH1 in folate handling…
FOLR2 encodes folate receptor beta, a folate-binding protein expressed in particular cell types, including subsets of immune cells. It is distinct from the FOLR1 receptor and the SLC19A1 reduced folate carrier. Also called: Folate Receptor …
FUT2 affects substances on the surfaces of the gut and other moist tissues and is studied in relation to the microbiome. Also called: Fucosyltransferase 2 The mucosal and microbiome connection Dr. Purser’s course places FUT2 in its gut–immu…
G6PC2 encodes a glucose-6-phosphatase-related protein expressed in pancreatic islet cells. Common variation is associated with differences in fasting glucose regulation; it is not the insulin receptor. Also called: Glucose-6-Phosphatase Cat…
GAD1 helps your body make GABA, a chemical messenger, from glutamate. Also called: Glutamate Decarboxylase 1 The glutamate-to-GABA connection Dr. Purser’s course uses GAD/GABA teaching to explain a connection between excitatory and inhibito…
GSR encodes glutathione reductase. It uses reducing power from NADPH to help convert oxidized glutathione back to reduced glutathione, allowing this antioxidant system to be reused. Also called: Glutathione Reductase Recycling used glutathi…
GSTM1 helps your body use glutathione to process some compounds. Also called: Glutathione S-Transferase Mu 1 Using glutathione in conjugation GSTM1 belongs to the glutathione transferase family. These enzymes use glutathione in conjugation …
GSTP1 helps your body use glutathione to process some compounds. Also called: Glutathione S-Transferase Pi 1 Using glutathione in conjugation GSTP1 belongs to the glutathione transferase family. These enzymes use glutathione in conjugation …
GSTT1 helps your body use glutathione to process some compounds. Also called: Glutathione S-Transferase Theta 1, GSTT Using glutathione in conjugation GSTT1 belongs to the glutathione transferase family. These enzymes use glutathione in con…
HLA-DQA2 is part of the HLA class II region involved in immune recognition. It should not be treated as interchangeable with HLA-DQA1 or as a measurement of how well the immune system fights infections. Also called: HLADQA2, Human Leukocyte…
Best match puts all-term matches before partial matches and related reading. Identical social posts and matching long titles across other sources are grouped when access is the same. Search covers published titles, descriptions, available article text, report overviews, and the full text of the nutrient, gene and learning-essential reference pages. Books, uploaded chapters and downloads-page reports are searchable through selected editorial guides and topic names; the original files and full book text are not published. Full Drive reports are not copied into search. Substack subscriber titles and public summaries are included; full subscriber content opens on Substack. Video transcripts are added when available.
