    Study identified eight different mutations in CRYGC associated with autosomal dominant congenital nuclear cataracts (ADCC) in a cohort of Chinese family and shows that CRYGC mutations are responsible for 4.1% of ADCC families in the cohort. The results expand the spectrum of CRYGC mutations as well as their associated phenotypes.

    We examined a cohort of Chinese patients with congenital cataracts and studied the phenotypes and genotypes. Extralenticular abnormalities, such as microcornea and ocular coloboma, can also be found in patients with congenital cataracts. The phenotype of congenital cataracts associated with macular and optic disc coloboma was reported for the first time in this study.

    Mutations in crystallin genes result in congenital cataract associated with other ocular abnormalities.
