Comment on mode of inheritance: MOI corrected from "X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females" to "X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)"

The mechanism of pathogenicity is gain-of-function (GOF).

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. Sources: Expert list

MOI reviewed by clinical team. Katrina Stone comment: From genereview: Although sometimes considered a synonym for XLP, the term erythropoietic protoporphyria, X-linked dominant is incorrect and should not be used: in all X-linked metabolic disorders the phenotype in heterozygous females can range from asymptomatic to as severe as that seen in affected male relatives. Mafalda Gomes comment: 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).
