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]

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr168Metfs*10) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with methylmalonic acidemia (PMID: 15308131, 31622506). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218974). -
