Associated with Microphthalmia, isolated 3 (OMIM:611038) in OMIM and as definitive Gen2Phen gene. PMID: 30811539 reports a case with a homozygous terminating RAX variant with Anophthalmia, Hypopituitarism, Diabetes Insipidus and Cleft Palate. The authors review previously published RAX variants (table 2) and conclude that their case represents a severve phenotype, which matches the features seen in a Rax knockout mouse, which has loss of ventral
forebrain structures, pituitary, and basosphenoid bone and palate and a misplaced anterior pituitary gland along the roof of the oral cavity.Created: 22 Sep 2022, 11:02 a.m. | Last Modified: 22 Sep 2022, 11:02 a.m.
