Comment on list classification: We discussed and agreed internally that all genes within the Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies) phenotypic series available on OMIM should be demoted to red, as it is unlikely that these conditions would present with cataracts as a main feature.Created: 27 Jun 2016, 4:26 p.m.
Is on the Manchester congenital cataracts gene panel, and is a confirmed DD gene for Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies) type A4 (includes cataract as a phenotype).Created: 29 Apr 2016, 11:28 a.m.
