Green List (high evidence)

Well-established gene-disease association. Menkes disease and Occipital horn syndrome are caused by an inborn error of copper metabolism.

Mode of inheritance
X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females

Phenotypes
Menkes disease MIM#309400; Occipital horn syndrome MIM#304150; disorder of copper matabolism

Green List (high evidence)

Menkes disease results from complete loss of transcript, while minimal residual transcript causes the milder OHS. Females have been described with the Occipital horn syndrome phenotype (OMIM).

Missense variants usually lead to splicing defects (PMID: 21221114)
