Preferred Label : Cataract 9, multiple types;
Symbol : CTRCT9;
CISMeF acronym : CATC1; CTRCT9;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Alternative titles and symbols : Cataract, autosomal dominant; CATC1; Cataract 9, multiple types, with or without microcornea; Cataract, autosomal recessive congenital 1;
Description : Mutations in the CRYAA gene have been found to cause multiple types of cataract, which
have been described as nuclear, zonular central nuclear, laminar, lamellar, anterior
polar, posterior polar, cortical, embryonal, anterior subcapsular, fan-shaped, and
total. Cataract associated with microcornea, sometimes called the cataract-microcornea
syndrome, is also caused by mutation in the CRYAA gene. Both autosomal dominant and
autosomal recessive modes of inheritance have been reported. The symbol;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant; Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the alpha-A-crystallin gene (CRYAA, 123580.0001);
