Gene:
methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase
Gene ID:
192245
Symbol:
MUT
Species:
1000
Description:
MUT encodes the mitochondrial enzymne methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase. In humans, MUT is a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme which catalyzes the isomerization of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA, while in other species this enzyme may have different functions. Mutations in MUT may lead to various types of methylmalonic aciduria.
