Abstract excerpt
Propionic acidemia is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by deficiency of propionyl-CoA carboxylase, a dodecameric enzyme composed of alpha-PCC and beta-PCC subunits (encoded by genes PCCA and PCCB) that have been associated with a number of mutations responsible for this disease. To clarify the molecular effect associated with gene alterations causing propionic acidemia, 12 different mutations affecting the...
