MCCC2
protein-codingmethylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase subunit 2, the group of Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase subunits
Gene summary
This gene encodes the small subunit of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase. This enzyme functions as a heterodimer and catalyzes the carboxylation of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA to form 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA. Mutations in this gene are associated with 3-Methylcrotonylglycinuria, an autosomal recessive disorder of leucine catabolism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

The relationship between MCCC2 and 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency (autosomal recessive) was evaluated using the ClinGen Clinical Validity Framework as of September, 2019. MCCC2 encodes the beta subunit of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, which is involved in the catabolism of leucine. Deficiency of MCCC2 is associated with increased urinary excretion of 3-hydroxyisovalerate & 3-methylcrotonylglycine, The clinical phenotype ranges from severe neurological abnormalities and death in infancy to asymptomatic. Variants in MCCC2 were first reported in humans with this deficiency in 2001 (Gallardo et al., PMID: 11170888; Baumgartner et al., PMID: 11181649). At least 113 unique variants (missense, nonsense, frameshift, splicing, deletion) have been identified in humans (Cozzolino et al., 2018; PMID 29767664). Evidence supporting this gene-disease relationship includes case-level and experimental data. This gene-disease relationship is supported by biochemical assays, expression studies, and in vitro studies. In summary, MCCC2 is definitively associated with autosomal recessive 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency. This has been repeatedly demonstrated in both the research and clinical diagnostic settings and has been upheld over time.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_022132.5. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
