Impaired Function of a Rare Mutation in the MMUT Gene Causes Methylmalonic Acidemia in a Chinese Patient [PDF]
Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder mainly caused by mutations in the methylmalonyl coenzyme A mutase (MCM) gene (MMUT) and leads to the reduced activity of MCM.

Searching for homozygous haplotype deficiency in Manech Tête Rousse dairy sheep revealed a nonsense variant in the MMUT gene affecting newborn lamb viability [PDF]
Background Recessive deleterious variants are known to segregate in livestock populations, as in humans, and some may be lethal in the homozygous state. Results We used phased 50 k single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes and pedigree data to scan ...

A rare mutation c.1663G > A (p.A555T) in the MMUT gene associated with mild clinical and biochemical phenotypes of methylmalonic acidemia in 30 Chinese patients [PDF]
Background Methylmalonic acidemia is an inherited organic acid metabolic disease. It involves multiple physiological systems and has variable manifestations. The primary causative gene MMUT carries wide range of mutations, and one of them, c.1663G > A (p.
