Genes affected

MMUT (HGNC:7526): (methylmalonyl-CoA mutase) This gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase. In humans, the product of this gene 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 this gene may lead to various types of methylmalonic aciduria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln659*) in the MUT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MUT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 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 aciduria (PMID: 27167370, 27233228). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 222939). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
