MCEE

SYNONYMS
GLOD2, Methylmalonyl CoA Epimerase, Glyoxalase Domain Containing 2, DL-methylmalonyl-CoA Racemase.

INTRODUCTION
MCEE catalyzes the interconversion of D- and L-methylmalonyl-CoA throughout the degradation of branched chain amino acids, odd chain-length fatty acids, and other metabolites. MCEE protein deficiency is an autosomal recessive inborn error of amino acid metabolism, involving valine, threonine, isoleucine and methionine. This organic aciduria can appear in the neonatal period with life-threatening metabolic acidosis, hyperammonemia, feeding difficulties, pancytopenia and coma.

DESCRIPTION
MCEE produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 161 amino acids (37-176a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 17.3kDa.
MCEE is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
