Mutation Analyses in Selected Exons of the MUT Gene in Indian Patients with Methylmalonic Acidemia.


ABSTRACT: Deficiency or diminished activity of a cobalamin dependent enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase causes inborn error of metabolism called methylmalonic acidemia (MMA). In this study we elucidated the spectrum of mutations in 21 Indian mut MMA patients by direct sequencing. Sequence analysis identified a total of 70 mutations in exon 2, 9, 11 and 12 of MUT gene. Out of which 26 mutations were predicted to be deleterious and rest were benign. The 23 novel mutations consist of four nonsense mutations (p.N6*, p.G539*, p.E609* and p.I671*), twelve missense mutations (p.K128I, p.N547T, p.D554Y, p.A558T, p.R559P, p.A631T, p.I647T, p.E656D, p.V657E, p.Q660H, p.K679N, and p.G696Y) and seven frame shift mutations (c.375_376insA, c.1642delA, c.1655delC, c.1825_1826insT, c.1957delGA, c.2014delA and c.2062_2063insGA). All of them are point mutations or micro rearrangements. Three of these mutations (p.K621N, p.G648D, p.G630E) have been previously reported; all of them are missense mutations. The mutations are distributed throughout the exon 2, 9, 11 and 12, 38.4 % mutation are located in exon 12.
