Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that is involved in an early step of vitamin B12 metabolism. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is essential for normal development and survival in humans. Mutations in this gene cause methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblD (MMADHC), a disorder of cobalamin metabolism that is characterized by decreased levels of the coenzymes adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin. Pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 11 and X.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008].
- UniProt Summary: Involved in cobalamin metabolism (PubMed:18385497, PubMed:23415655, PubMed:24722857, PubMed:26364851). Plays a role in regulating the biosynthesis of two coenzymes, methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin (PubMed:18385497, PubMed:24722857). Plays a role in regulating the proportion of methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin (PubMed:23415655, PubMed:24722857). Promotes oxidation of cob(II)alamin bound to MMACHC (PubMed:26364851). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18385497, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23415655, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24722857, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26364851}.
