Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA, also known as "methylmalonic
aciduria") is an inborn error of intermediary metabolism
that may present in the early neonatal period with
progressive encephalopathy and death due to a secondary
hyperammonemia.
Methylmalonic acidemia is an inherited disorder in which
the body is unable to process certain proteins and fats
(lipids) properly. Methylmalonic acidemia is a disorder of
amino acid metabolism, involving a defect in the conversion
of methylmalonyl-coenzyme A (CoA) to succinyl-CoA.
