ATP:cob(I)alamin adenosyltransferase (ATR, E.C.2.5.1.17) converts reduced cob(I)alamin to the adenosylcobalamin cofactor. Mutations in the MMAB gene encoding ATR are responsible for the cblB type methylmalonic aciduria. Here we report the functional analysis of five cblB mutations to determine the u

## Abstract ## Background Methylmalonic aciduria is an autosomal recessive inborn error of the propionate metabolic pathway. One form of this disorder is caused by mutations in methylmalonylβcoenzyme A mutase (MCM), resulting in reduced levels of enzyme activity. The pharmacological upβregulation
Methylmalonic aciduria is known to result from defects in the enzyme methylmalonyl CoA mutase (MCM) (mut complementation group) and from defects in the synthesis of the MCM cofactor adenosylcobalamin (cblA, cblB, cblC, cblD, and cblF groups). Two patients who excrete methylmalonic acid have recently
## Communicated by Johannes Zschocke Methylmalonic aciduria (MMA-uria) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of amino acid metabolism, involving valine, threonine, isoleucine, and methionine. This organic aciduria may present in the neonatal period with life-threatening metabolic acidosis, hypera
