High Concentration Methylcobalamin (Me-Cbl) or Combination of Methyl- and Hydroxocobalamin (Me/OH-Cbl) for the Treatment of Cobalamin C Deficiency and Related Disorders

Cobalamin C deficiency (cblC), caused by mutations in MMACHC, is the most common inborn error of intracellular vitamin B12 metabolism. NHGRI scientist have generated a number of Mmachc knockout mouse models. The cblC mice present with early lethality, recapitulate the neurological phenotype seen in patients, and have enabled proof of concept testing...

Gene Therapy for Cobalamin C Deficiency (cblC) with Viable Mouse Models

Cobalamin C deficiency (cblC) is the most common inborn error of intracellular cobalamin metabolism and is caused by mutations in MMACHC, a gene responsible for processing and trafficking dependent enzymes: intracellular cobalamin, resulting in elevated methylmalonic acid and homocysteine and methionine deficiency. Disease manifestations include growth...
