Abstract excerpt
Isolated methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is an autosomal recessive, inherited disorder that results from either a mut defect of the methylmalonyl-CoA mutase apoenzyme (MCM, the product of the MUT gene) or a cbl defect in the synthesis of its cofactor, adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl). In this study, biochemical and mutational analyses of three patients clinically diagnosed with MMA were performed. No MCM activity was...
