Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH) comprises three types: FHH1, FHH2, and FHH3, which are due to mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), G-protein α 11 subunit (Gα11), and adaptor protein-2 sigma subunit (AP2σ), respectively. The aims of this study were: to assess for genotype–phenotype correlations among the three reported FHH3-causing AP2σ mutations, which all involve the Arg15 residue, and comprise Arg15Cys, Arg15His, and Arg15Leu...
