Abstract excerpt
Purpose: FOXE3 encodes a highly conserved, lens-enriched transcription factor essential for eye development. Biallelic mutations in FOXE3 are associated with a spectrum of ocular anomalies, ranging from congenital cataracts to complex microphthalmia (CM), with severity and penetrance correlating with genotype. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory landscape of FOXE3 and its contribution to CM. Methods:...
