| methylmalonyl-CoA | An intermediate in the degradation of several metabolites (e.g., valine, methionine, odd-chain fatty acids, theronine); elevated in cases of pernicious anaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the interconversion of d-methylmalonyl-CoA and l-methylmalonyl-CoA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| methylmalonyl-CoA mutase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses 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. Chemical name: (R)-2-Methyl-3-oxopropanoyl-CoA CoA-carbonylmutase Registry number: EC 5.4.99.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
| D-methylmalonyl coenzyme A hydrolase | <enzyme> does not act on l-methylmalonyl-CoA Registry number: EC 3.1.2.- Synonym: d-methylmalonyl CoA hydrolase (26 Jun 1999) |
