| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables propionyl-CoA carboxylase activity. Predicted to be involved in lipid catabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; nervous system; orbito-sphenoid; sensory organ; and urinary system. Used to study propionic acidemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amino acid metabolic disorder and propionic acidemia. Orthologous to human PCCA (propionyl-CoA carboxylase subunit alpha). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice die 24-36 hours after birth due to accelerated ketoacidosis. Death is preceded by reduced milk intake, poor movement, dehydration, accumulation of propionyl-CoA, ketonuria, increased fat deposition and glycogen consumption in liver, and enlarged kidney collecting ducts.
