Methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase/MUT Recombinant antibody

Methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase (MUT) is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the metabolism of certain amino acids and fatty acids. Mutations in the MUT gene can lead to methylmalonic acidemia, a metabolic disorder characterized by the accumulation of toxic compounds such as methylmalonyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA. This condition can cause severe health issues including developmental delays, metabolic acidosis, and neurological problems. MUT is essential for maintaining normal metabolic processes and its dysfunction can have significant health implications, highlighting its importance in both basic metabolism and clinical medicine.
