    Abstract

    Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a rare inherited metabolic disorder manifested by impaired metabolism of certain amino acids and fatty acids. It occurs by a deficiency of the enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, which leads to the collection of toxic levels of methylmalonic acid in the body. This article gives an overall idea about methylmalonic acidemia, along with its symptoms, causes, diagnosis, and treatment options. It also intensifies the importance of early detection and management in improving outcomes for individuals affected by this condition
