Disease

FUMH_HUMAN Defects in FH are the cause of fumarase deficiency (FHD) [MIM:606812; also known as fumaricaciduria. FHD is characterized by progressive encephalopathy, developmental delay, hypotonia, cerebral atrophy and lactic and pyruvic acidemia.[:][1] Defects in FH are the cause of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) [MIM:150800. A disorder characterized by predisposition to cutaneous and uterine leiomyomas, and papillary type 2 renal cancer which occurs in about 20% of patients.[2]

Function

FUMH_HUMAN Also acts as a tumor suppressor.
