Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Infants are vulnerable to zinc deficiency. Thus, abnormally low breast milk zinc levels cause transient neonatal zinc deficiency (TNZD) in breast-fed infants. TNZD has been considered to be rare because of a paucity of citations in the published literature. However, recent studies of affected mothers identified four missense mutations in the solute carrier family 30 member 2 gene (SLC30A2), which...
