62 ABCB6 p.Arg192Gln In Patient 1 (Family 1, II.1), we detected a heterozygous mutation in gap junction alpha-8 (GJA8), c. 593G4A, predicting a deleterious substitution of arginine by glutamine (p.(Arg198Gln)), which segregated with disease in the family (Table 2, Figure 3a, Supplementary Figure S2), and is previously reported in autosomal-dominant cataract/microcornea.26 In Patient 4 (Family 4, II.1), a novel heterozygous variant was detected in CRYGC, Table 1 Clinical phenotypes and causative and other prioritised variants from exome sequencing in patients with developmental eye disease Sample (family, pedigree ID, inheritance patterna) Ocular phenotype Genes with causative variants:b,c,d prioritised variants with appropriate family segregation Genes with prioritised variants,c,d but lacking appropriate family segregation Novel Congenital cataracts and microcornea/microphthalmia Patient 1 (Family 1, II.1, AD) Nuclear cataracts, microcornea GJA8, c.593G4A, p.(Arg198Gln) Nil Devi and Vijayalakshmi,26 Patient 2 (Family 2, II.1, AD) Nuclear cataracts, microcornea Nil Nil - Patient 3 (Family 3, II.1) Cataracts, microcornea, iris processes to lens Nil CRYBA1, c.475G4A, p.(Gly159Ser) rs117757092 Patient 4e (Family 4, I.2, AD) Nuclear cataracts, microphthalmia CRYGC, c.497C4T, p.(Ser166Phe) Nil Yes Peters anomaly Patient 5 (Family 5, II.1) Peters anomaly, anterior polar cataracts CYP1B1, c.1200_1209dup, p.(Thr404Serfs*30) CYP1B1, c.171G4A, p.(Trp57*) Nil Stoilov et al,27 Vincent et al,6 Patient 6 (Family 6, II.1) Peters anomaly, rudimentary lens PAX6, c.152G4T, p.(Gly51Val) Nil Yes Patient 7 (Family 7, II.2) Peters anomaly, microphthalmia Nil Nil - Coloboma and microphthalmia Patient 8 (Family 8, II.1) Coloboma, limbal dermoid, anterior polar cataract Nil Nil - Patient 9 (Family 9, II.1, AR) Iris and fundal colobomas, microphthalmia Nil CYP1B1, c.868dup, p.(Arg290Profs*37) CYP1B1, c.241T4A, p.(Tyr81Asn) BFSP1, c.1620_1621del, p.(*541Lysext*7) Yes rs9282671 recorded in 1000G Patient 10 (Family 10, II.1) Iris and fundal colobomas Nil ABCB6, c.575G4A, p.(Arg192Gln) SLC16A12, c.472T4C, p.(Ser158Pro) rs150221689 rs150800688 Patient 11 (Family 11, II.1) Iris and fundal colobomas, microphthalmia Nil GDF3, c.974C4T, p.(Pro325Leu) CYP1B1, c.1103G4A, p.(Arg368His) CYP1B1, c.685G4A, p.(Glu229Lys) BFSP1, c.401G4C, p.(Cys134Ser) Yes rs79204362 rs57865060 Yes Abbreviations: AD, autosomal dominant, AR, autosomal recessive; Nil, no variant identified. Login to comment 91 ABCB6 p.Arg192Gln Other patients with microphthalmia and coloboma have been found to have heterozygous missense variants in the TGF-beta domain of GDF3, and variable penetrance has been previously noted.30 In Patient 10 (Family 10, II.1), we detected a rare heterozygous variant in ABCB6, c.575G4A, p.(Arg192Gln) (Table 3, Supplementary Figure S3). Login to comment 104 ABCB6 p.Arg192Gln In our family (Family 10), the unaffected father also carried ABCB6, c.575G4A (p.(Arg192Gln)) in the heterozygous state, indicating that this is a variant with incomplete penetrance and that other factor/s are contributing to the disease phenotype in Patient 10.
