What is Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin)?
Methylcobalamin is the bioactive, coenzyme form of vitamin B12 that serves as a methyl donor in the methionine synthase reaction, converting homocysteine to methionine. It is critical for DNA methylation, myelin synthesis, and neurological function. Unlike cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin does not require hepatic conversion.
Frequently Asked Questions
Methylcobalamin vs cyanocobalamin?
Methylcobalamin is the bioactive coenzyme form used directly by cells. Cyanocobalamin requires liver conversion and contains a cyanide moiety. Methylcobalamin is preferred for neurological and methylation research.
