[5] This gene encodes a protein localized in cytosol and mitochondria that is involved in an early step of vitamin B12 metabolism.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is essential for normal development and survival in humans.
[6] Mutations in this gene cause methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblD (MMADHC), a disorder of cobalamin metabolism that is characterized by decreased levels of the coenzymes adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin.
