" /> Cataract 4, multiple types - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Cataract 4, multiple types;

Symbol : CTRCT4;

CISMeF acronym : CACA; CCA3; CTRCT4; PCC;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : PCC; Cataract, nonnuclear polymorphic congenital; Cataract, punctate, progressive juvenile-onset; CACA; Cataract, crystalline aculeiform; CCA3; Cataract 4, multiple types, with or without microcornea; Cataract, congenital, cerulean type, 3;

Description : Mutations in the CRYGD gene have been found to cause multiple types of cataract, which have been described as aculeiform, crystalline aculeiform, crystalline, crystal, frosted, needle-shaped, fasciculiform, congenital cerulean, nonnuclear polymorphic congenital, central nuclear, lamellar, and punctate. Some patients also exhibit microcornea. Because multiple types of cataract are caused by mutation in the CRYGD gene, some of which display intrafamilial variability, several earlier distinct cataract entries in OMIM have been included here.;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the crystallin gamma-D gene (123690.0001);

Prefixed ID : #115700;
