Safety, efficacy, and timing of transplantation(s) in propionic and methylmalonic aciduria
Propionic (PA) and methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) share many clinical similarities, which include the risk of acute metabolic encephalopathies, and some long‐term complications, such as optic neuropathy, pancreatic involvement, developmental disability ...

Gene identification for the cblD defect of vitamin B12 metabolism [PDF]
Background Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is an essential cofactor in several metabolic pathways. Intracellular conversion of cobalamin to its two coenzymes, adenosylcobalamin in mitochondria and methylcobalamin in the cytoplasm, is necessary for the ...

Novel compound heterozygous SUCLG1 variants may contribute to mitochondria DNA depletion syndrome‐9
Background Succinate‐CoA ligase/synthetase (SCS) deficiency is responsible for encephalomyopathy with mitochondrial DNA depletion and mild methylmalonic aciduria. Variants in SUCLG1, the nuclear gene encoding the alpha subunit of the SCS enzyme playing a

Ammonium accumulation is a primary effect of 2-methylcitrate exposure in an in vitro model for brain damage in methylmalonic aciduria. [PDF]
Using 3D organotypic rat brain cell cultures in aggregates we recently identified 2-methylcitrate (2-MCA) as the main toxic metabolite for developing brain cells in methylmalonic aciduria.
