HIBCH

MIM.610690 2q32.2

Beta-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.4) is responsible for the specific hydrolysis of HIBYL-CoA, a valine catabolite, as well as the hydrolysis of beta-hydroxypropionyl-CoA, an intermediate in a minor pathway of propionate metabolism.

Pathology

- 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase deficiency (MIM.250620) with progressive infantile neurodegeneration and structural abnormalities of the brain and heart.
