Molecular genetic basis of inherited cataract and associated phenotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Congenital cataract is a leading cause of visual disability in children. Inherited isolated (non-syndromic) cataract represents a significant proportion of cases and recently many causative genetic mutations have been identified. Inherited cataract is known to be clinically and genetically heterogeneous. Eleven clear-cut cataract phenotypes have been described. Cataract may be inherited as autosomal dominant,...
