Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the MMACHC gene lead to autosomal recessive combined methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria (cblC type). Additionally, specific mutations in the downstream, inversely oriented PRDX1 gene that result in aberrant PRDX1 transcripts overlapping the MMACHC promoter lead to its methylation and consequent downregulation of expression. This type is called epi-cblC and can be due to bi-allelic PRDX1...
