Methylmalonyl-CoA is the thioester consisting of coenzyme A linked to methylmalonic acid. It is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of succinyl-CoA, which plays an essential role in the citric acid cycle. [1]

Biosynthesis and metabolism

Propionate metabolic pathway with L- and D-methylmalonyl-CoA as intermediates.

Methylmalonyl-CoA can be synthesized in two ways:

Propionyl CoA + Bicarbonate Methylmalonyl CoA Succinyl CoA

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 plays an integral role in this reaction. Coenzyme B12 (adenosyl-cobalamin) is an organometallic form of vitamin B12 and serves as the cofactor of Methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, which is an essential enzyme in the human body. [5] The transformation of Methylmalonyl-CoA to Succinyl-CoA by this enzyme is a radical reaction. [5]

Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA)

This disease occurs when methylmalonyl-CoA mutase is unable to isomerize sufficient amounts of methylmalonyl-CoA into succinyl-CoA. [6] This causes a buildup of propionic and/or methylmalonic acid, which has effects on infants ranging from severe brain damage to death. [2] However, methylmalonyl-CoA also serves as the donor for lysine methylmalonylation, a pathogenic post-translational modification proposed to play a greater role in the disease than methylmalonic acid itself. [7] The disease is linked to vitamin B12, which is a cofactor for the enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. [6] [8]

Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA)

In combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA), mutations in the ACSF3 gene impair the mitochondrial enzyme acyl-CoA synthetase family member 3 (ACSF3), disrupting the conversion of methylmalonic acid to methylmalonyl-CoA and its entry into the citric acid cycle. [9] [10] This leads to accumulation of methylmalonic acid, reduced methylmalonyl-CoA levels and decreased lysine methylmalonylation compared to healthy controls. [7]
