GOF variants are associated with Protoporphyria, erythropoietic, XL, affecting hemizygous males and some het females (the phenotype in hete females ranges from asymptomatic to as severe as in affected males; reduced penetrance in females). LOF variants are associated with Anemia, sideroblastic, 1, XLR, affecting both hemizygous males and biallelic females. Both conditions included in newborns.
