{{Infobox_gene}}
Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type D protein, mitochondrial also known as MMADHC is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MMADHC gene.{{cite journal |vauthors=Coelho D, Suormala T, Stucki M, Lerner-Ellis JP, Rosenblatt DS, Newbold RF, Baumgartner MR, Fowler B | title = Gene identification for the cblD defect of vitamin B12 metabolism | journal = N.

Function
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.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: MMADHC Methylmalonic aciduria (cobalamin deficiency) cblD type, with homocystinuria | url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=27249 }}
Clinical significance
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.
