Pathway Diagrams

Biological pathways are complex to describe, and often a visual diagram makes it easier to conceptualize. This is an evolving Genetic Lifehacks project, so check back soon for more pathway diagrams and updates to current planners.  Folate pathway (absorption, cellular cycles):

MTHFD1: Folate cycle and Choline

MTHFD1: Folate and Choline

The MTHFD1 gene encodes an enzyme in the folate cycle. Genetic variants here can indicate a greater need for choline or folate in the diet.
