Abstract excerpt
Wilson disease (WD), a copper metabolism disorder caused by mutations in ATP7B, manifests heterogeneous clinical features. Interestingly, in a fraction of clinically diagnosed WD patients, mutations in ATP7B appears to be missing. In this review we discuss the plausible explanations of this missing heritability and propose a workflow that can identify the hidden mutations. Mutation analyses of WD generally...
