Personalized Genome‐Scale Modeling Reveals Metabolic Perturbations in Fibroblasts of Methylmalonic Aciduria Patients [PDF]
Cobalamin (vitamin B12) is an essential cofactor for two human enzymes, methionine synthase and methylmalonyl‐CoA mutase. Inborn errors of cobalamin metabolism (IECMs) are inherited genetic defects resulting in improper transport, modification, or ...

Dietary Treatment from Birth to Pregnancy in a Woman with Methylmalonic Aciduria [PDF]
Methylmalonic aciduria is treated with a natural protein-restricted diet with adequate energy intake to sustain metabolic balance. Natural protein is a source of methylmalonic acid precursors, and intake is individually modified according to the severity

Combined Malonic and Methylmalonic Aciduria Due to ACSF3 Variants Results in Benign Clinical Course in Three Chinese Patients. [PDF]
Introduction: Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is a rare metabolic disease caused by biallelic variants in ACSF3 gene. The clinical phenotype is highly heterogeneous in this disorder, ranging from asymptomatic to severe symptoms.

The impact of metabolic stressors on mitochondrial homeostasis in a renal epithelial cell model of methylmalonic aciduria. [PDF]
Methylmalonic aciduria (MMA-uria) is caused by deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT). MUT deficiency hampers energy generation from specific amino acids, odd-chain fatty acids and cholesterol.

Spectrum and characterization of bi-allelic variants in MMAB causing cblB-type methylmalonic aciduria. [PDF]
Pathogenic variants in MMAB cause cblB-type methylmalonic aciduria, an autosomal-recessive disorder of propionate metabolism. MMAB encodes ATP:cobalamin adenosyltransferase, using ATP and cob(I)alamin to create 5’-deoxyadenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl), the ...

A Deep Clinical and Biochemical Characterization of a Patient With Combined Malonic and Methylmalonic Aciduria (CMAMMA). [PDF]
Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is an inborn error of metabolism caused by a deficiency in mitochondrial malonyl‐CoA synthetase, the enzyme responsible for activating malonic acid (MA) to malonyl‐CoA, a precursor of lipoic acid.
