Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type C protein also known as MMACHC is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MMACHC gene.[1]

Function

The C-terminal region of the product of the MMACHC gene is similar to TonB, a bacterial protein involved in energy transduction for cobalamin uptake.[1] The MMACHC gene product catalyzes the decyanation of cyanocobalamin as well as the dealkylation of alkylcobalamins including methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin.[2] This function has also been attributed to cobalamin reductases.[3] The MMACHC gene product and cobalamin reductases enable the interconversion of cyano- and alkylcobalamins.[4][5]

Clinical significance

Mutations are associated with methylmalonic acidemia.[1][6][7][8]
