Genes affected

MMAA (HGNC:18871): (metabolism of cobalamin associated A) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the translocation of cobalamin into the mitochondrion, where it is used in the final steps of adenosylcobalamin synthesis. Adenosylcobalamin is a coenzyme required for the activity of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. Defects in this gene are a cause of methylmalonic aciduria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Methylmalonic aciduria, cblA type Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jun 16, 2023	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554640). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with methylmalonic aciduria due to cobalamin A deficiency (PMID: 23026888, 32754920). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys184Trpfs*3) in the MMAA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MMAA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15523652, 15781192). -
