NEW COVID-19 Report v1.3 We haven't stopped learning about COVID-19 and today we're issuing an update to our COVID-19 Report and our Guide! See below for the two big changes! Read the Guide to COVID-19 Genes & SNPs Get Your Reports on Sterling's App Interferon-alpha/beta receptor 1 (IFNAR1) [...]
We're pleased to announce another update to our flagship Variant Report, the second this month! This update adds SNPs from a new gene, PRNP, to relevant sections of the Variant Report. Below you'll find a brief summary of the PRNP gene compiled by Cynthia Smith of Nutrigenomics Wellness. As usual we'll be updating existing v2.10 [...]
We've leveraged the research we've done for our other reports into a big update to the Variant Report! We'll be updating all v2.9 Variant Reports over the course of this week. In version 2.10 you'll find nearly a hundred new G6PD SNPs. Additionally G6PD SNPs are now classified into three classes based on the World [...]
Here's one more excerpt from our guide to COVID-19 Genes & SNPs, that focuses on the FURIN gene Furin (FURIN) Furin is an enzyme encoded by the FURIN gene. Furin is a proprotein convertase and acts to cleave sections of inactive proteins, in order to activate them. The Furin enzyme is highly expressed [...]
Here's another quick excerpt from our guide to COVID-19 Genes & SNPs, this time focusing on the ACE2 gene Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) ACE2 gene encodes the angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 ACE2 acts as a cell surface receptor for Human coronavirus. Normally, the ACE2 receptor plays an important role in regulating the body’s blood pressure [...]
Here's a quick excerpt from our updated and expanded guide to COVID-19 Genes & SNPs Transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) TMPRSS2 is a Serine protease that proteolytically cleaves and activates the viral spike glycoproteins which then facilitates virus-cell membrane fusions; spike proteins are synthesized and maintained in precursor intermediate folding states and [...]
We've again updated and expanded our COVID-19 report and Gene/SNP guide! This time we focused on G6PD and more than tripled the number of secondary SNPs we're looking at. Iron upregulation is happening to many who get COVID-19. G6PD SNPs are categorized into Class I, II and III as the WHO classifies them. Class [...]
We've updated and expanded our COVID-19 report and Gene/SNP guide! The biggest update is the addition of PTGS2/COX2 genes and their connection to NSAIDs and COVID-19. We've also updated the information on FUT2 and added SNPs to the COVID-19 report. Previously generated reports are already being updated for free; if your report says v1.1 then [...]
As the decade draws to a close we at MTHFR Support find ourselves looking back and reflecting on what an amazing journey it has been. We know we've been relatively quiet with news this past year, but we have been working on some big things in the background. We have exciting plans for 2020 and [...]
We're pleased to announce a new update to our flagship report. As usual, all your old reports will be updated over the course of the next week or so, provided you haven't deleted your raw data from our site. In this update you will see new BCMO1 SNPs. BCMO1 and BCO1 are the same. Some [...]
