We unified a human multiparametric NKH mutation scale that separates severe from attenuated neurological disease with new in silico tools for murine and human genome level-analyses, gathered in vivo evidence from mice engineered with top-ranking attenuated and a highly pathogenic mutation, and integrated the data in a model of pre- and post-natal disease outcomes, relevant for over a hundred major and minor neurogenic mutations. The gene discussed is GLDC; the disease is nervous system disorder.
