Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase is an adenosylcobalamin-dependent enzyme which catalyzes isomerization of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA. Previous reports have described cloning and sequencing of a cDNA for human methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. This clone does not express an active apoenzyme after gene transfer into primary MCM-deficient fibroblasts and contains several sequences which differ from the consensus sequence of other cDNA clones. We describe reconstruction of a functional MCM cDNA and expression of recombinant enzyme activity in primary fibroblasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This consensus human MCM cDNA is capable of complementing the inherited defect in mut MMA and overexpressing an enzyme in yeast with kinetic properties indistinguishable from the enzyme in murine or human tissues.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008765 Methylmalonyl-CoA Mutase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA by transfer of the carbonyl group. It requires a cobamide coenzyme. A block in this enzymatic conversion leads to the metabolic disease, methylmalonic aciduria. EC 5.4.99.2.
