22. Haplotype analysis and phylogeny of polymorphisms of this protein were studied in two male populations. PMID: 12516615
23. Using 2 (CA)n flanking markers of the OTC gene (DXS997 & DXS1068), the haplotypic background of 37 different mutational events was defined & compared with random control chromosomes. 1 particular haplotype is a risk factor for carrying OTC mutations. PMID: 15300856
24. Mutations in the human ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) gene is detected in patients with Hyperammonemia-induced encephalopathy due to ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency. PMID: 15692798
