Gene information for PCCA (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5095
Official gene symbolPCCA
Full namepropionyl CoA carboxylase, alpha polypeptide
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit of the heterodimeric mitochondrial enzyme Propionyl-CoA carboxylase. PCCA encodes the biotin-binding region of this enzyme. Mutations in either PCCA or PCCB (encoding the beta subunit) lead to an enzyme deficiency resulting in propionic acidemia. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
