Deleterious mutations of this gene cause normophosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (NFTC).[4] On the other hand, mutations that increase the activity of SAMD9 cause myelodysplasia, infection, restriction of growth, adrenal hypoplasia (small adrenal glands with diminished function), genitalphenotypes, and enteropathy (MIRAGE) syndrome.[5] This can lead to loss of chromosome 7 as described for monosomy 7 and myelodysplastic syndrome and leukemia syndrome-2 (M7MLS2).[6] Loss of chromosome 7/7q may be an adaptation to a growth restriction inherent in SAMD9/9L mutant cells.[7]
