Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Is the canine copper toxicosis gene MURR1 implicated in the pathogenesis of Wilson disease?
Answer: These data suggest that the MURR1 gene and its protein product are unlikely to play a primary role in the pathogenesis of Wilson disease. More extensive studies with larger numbers of clinically homogeneous patients should be carried out to establish whether nucleotide alterations in the MURR1 gene may have a role in causing WD or WD-like disorders or act as modifying factors in the phenotype variability in WD.
Output (English): no
