To identify the genetic defect associated with autosomal dominant congenital nuclear cataract in a Chinese family, molecular genetic investigation via haplotype analysis and direct sequencing were performed Sequencing of the __CRYGD__ gene revealed a c.127T>C transition, which resulted in a substitu
Congenital cataracts (CCs) are clinically and genetically heterogeneous. Mutations in the same gene may lead to CCs differing in inheritance, morphology and severity. Loci for autosomal dominant posterior polar CC and total CC have both been mapped to the chromosomal 1p36 region harboring the EPHA2
