Protein
Methylmalonic aciduria type A protein, mitochondrial
Function
GTPase, binds and hydrolyzes GTP (PubMed:28497574, PubMed:20876572). Involved in intracellular vitamin B12 metabolism, mediates the transport of cobalamin (Cbl) into mitochondria for the final steps of adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl) synthesis. Functions as a G-protein chaperone that assists AdoCbl cofactor delivery from MMAB to the methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MMUT) and reactivation of the enzyme during catalysis (PubMed:28497574, PubMed:20876572).
Similarity
Belongs to the SIMIBI class G3E GTPase family. ArgK/MeaB subfamily.
