PIGY function has not been fully characterized.
Hyperphosphatasia with intellectual disability syndrome 6 has limited evidence linking it to mutations in the PIGY gene on chromosome 4.
Genetic testing for PIGY is available. Testing is considered research-grade for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 19 always present features, 20 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for hyperphosphatasia with intellectual disability syndrome 6.
3 publications have been identified in PubMed for hyperphosphatasia with intellectual disability syndrome 6. Kisho has analyzed 1 by research type. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (100%).
