Abstract
Background & objectivesFolate is a UV-labile vitamin, critical to maintenance of DNA synthesis and repair mechanisms. Evidence supports a number of folate-dependent enzymes as being UV-responsive, suggesting that the activity of pathways operating through such enzymes may differ between geographic areas of varied UV exposure. Therefore, we explored the possible association of global UV levels with the prevalence of common polymorphisms in folate-metabolism enzymes.
