Deskripsi
Methylmalonic acidemia is an inherited metabolic disease caused by loss or mutation of the enzyme MMUT. Here the authors use cell and animal models to show that MMUT mutations lead to defective mitophagy and stress in kidney cells, contributing to the pathogenesis in methylmalonic acidemia patients.
