Despite this findings, "COMMD1" mutations could not be detected in humans with non-Wilsonian copper accumulation states (such as Indian childhood cirrhosis) to explain their genetic origin.

White band disease White band disease White band disease (Acroporid white syndrome) is a coral disease that affects acroporid corals and is distinguishable by the white band of dead coral tissue that it forms. The disease completely destroys the coral tissue of Caribbean acroporid corals, specifically elkhorn coral ("Acropora palmata") and staghorn coral ("A. cervicornis"). The disease exhibits a pronounced division between the remaining coral tissue and the exposed coral skeleton.
