Identification of novel compound ATP7B mutations in a child with rare Wilson disease: A case report
2023-01-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal-recessive metabolic disorder characterized by excess copper accumulation predominantly in the liver, brain, and cornea. Clinical diagnosis of WD remains a challenge because of its phenotypic heterogeneity. Here we describe the novel mutation (p. K838N) in the ATP7B gene of a child with WD. The mutation affects a conserved ATP-binding domain that is involved...
