MMACHC
Template:Short description Template:Infobox gene
Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type C protein (MMACHC) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MMACHC gene.[1]
Function
The C-terminal region of the product of the MMACHC gene is similar to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin uptake.[1] The MMACHC gene product catalyzes the decyanation of cyanocobalamin as well as the dealkylation of alkylcobalamins including methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin.[2] This function has also been attributed to cobalamin reductases.[3] The MMACHC gene product and cobalamin reductases enable the interconversion of cyano- and alkylcobalamins.[4][5]
Clinical significance
Mutations are associated with combined homocystinuria and methylmalonic acidemia.[1][6][7][8][9]
