Abstract excerpt
The MUT locus encoding the enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase is defective in mut forms of methylmalonic acidemia. This locus has been mapped to chromosome 6p12-21.1. We report cloning and characterization of this locus which comprises 13 exons spanning greater than 35 kb of the genome. The MUT locus exhibits consensus sequences for transcription, splicing, and polyadenylation. The putative promoter region was...
