Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase deficiency, also called malonic aciduria, is a rare inborn error of metabolism (IEM) and autosomal recessive disorder caused by a defective MLYCD gene. The MLYCD gene codes for the protein malonyl-CoA decarboxylase which regulates the creation and degradation of fatty acids. This disorder is characterized by a large accumulation of fatty acid byproducts in the tissues. Symptoms of the disorder include delayed development, hypotonia, seizures, vomiting, diarrhea and cardiomyopathy. Treatment with L-carnitine is very effective, as it encourages beta-oxidation of fatty acids. Less than 30 cases globally have ever been reported, making this disorder extremely rare.
