- neonatal/early infantile form with seizures, hypotonia, feeding difficulties and vomiting
- late-onset form with seizures, hyperammonemia, hypoglycemia - juvenile form with vomiting and dehydratiion
-> asymptomatic 3MCC deficient mothers when they showed abnormal results during a neonatal screening test of a healthy infant [Kör D 2015, Lee SH 2014]
