Methylmalonic aciduria mut type Methylmalonic aciduria cblA type Methylmalonic aciduria cblB type Methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase deficiency Methylmalonic aciduria, transient, due to transcobalamin receptor (TCblR) defect Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria [DS:H02221]
Methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) is caused by a deficiency of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (mut type), which is a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme. Defects of adenosylcobalamin metabolism lead to variant forms of MMA (cblA and cblB type).
