Abstract excerpt
Isolated methylmalonic acidurias (MMA-urias) comprise a group of rare autosomal recessively inherited disorders characterised by accumulation of MMA in urine and other body fluids, resulting from deficient activity of the mitochondrial enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM). Isolated MMA-uria results from either MCM apoenzyme defects (mut(0) and mut(-)) or defects in synthesis of its cofactor...
