One more request. I think it needs to be made clear that there is limited evidence. I suggest adding that:
Only a single family with two monozygotic twin probands has been reported.
No change in expression of the gene has been observed so the variant has yet to be biochemically confirmed as the causal variant. Or something along those lines.

Studied children with CPUM have been born to unaffected parents. The children studied have been born with diffuse, universal, and progressive hyperpigmentaion at 15 years of age. At this time the hyperpigmentation had fully progressed [@doi:10.3892/br.2025.2016].",
