-
Confirmed diagnosis of Menkes disease based on the following clinical and/or biochemical and/or molecular characteristics:
Clinical: Abnormal hair color and/or texture, and/or seizures, and/or hypotonia, and/or developmental delay; or Biochemical: Low serum copper levels (< 75 mcg/dL) and/or ceruloplasmin and/or abnormal plasma catecholamine levels; or Molecular: Mutation(s) in the ATP7A gene (deletion/duplication, nonsense, missense, or canonical or non-canonical splice junction mutations).
