Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts
Gene: KIAA1109Added new-gene-name tag, new approved HGNC gene symbol for KIAA1109 is BLTP1.Created: 30 Jun 2022, 3:32 p.m. | Last Modified: 30 Jun 2022, 4:09 p.m.
Panel Version: 2.109
Comment on list classification: Demoted from Green to Red. KIAA1109 is associated with Alkuraya-Kucinskas syndrome and cataracts are a minor feature. As we are not aware of any cases of variants in this gene associated with isolated cataracts, it has been demoted to Red.Created: 2 Oct 2019, 1:56 p.m. | Last Modified: 2 Oct 2019, 1:56 p.m.

KIAA1109 is associated with a phenotype on OMIM and Gene2Phenotype. It is also a green gene on the Structural eye disease panel (code: 509, version 0.84), ID (code: 285, version 2.1015), Fetal anomalies panel (code: 478, version 0.339) and GES (code: 402, version 1.256). PMID: 29290337 reported on 10 unrelated families who have Alkuraya-Ku?inskas syndrome with biallelic variants in KIAA1109. 2 of 10 families (Chinese and Algerian) with affected members also having congenital cataracts. The same paper also produced a zebrafish model but there was no mention of any eye defects. PMID: 30906834 reported on a non-consanguineous African American family where two siblings had congenital neurological malformation disorder that variably presents with arthrogryposis, craniofacial and/or cardiac abnormalities. The two siblings also had congenital cataracts and were compound heterozygous for variants in this gene. There is enough evidence for this gene to be green on this panel.Created: 28 Aug 2019, 3:43 p.m. | Last Modified: 28 Aug 2019, 3:43 p.m.
