Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.54 SMG8 Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: SMG8 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.54 SMG8 Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: Rating Amber as although number of unrelated cases reaches threshold for inclusion (3), the phenotype is not fully penetrant and the disorder is better represented by other panels (e.g. ID, microcephaly etc). This may however we revised if further cases arise.

- PMID: 31130284 (2019) - One individual with cataract and a homozygous variant in this gene identified as part of a large candidate gene discovery study. Other features include microcephaly, ID, and neck hyperpigmentation. No further details were provided.

- PMID: 33242396 (2020) - Different biallelic variants in the SMG8 gene identified in 4 consanguineous families, of which 2 kindreds had 3 individuals with cataract. Authors reported congenital bilateral cataract in the two sibs, while the third patient had cataract operated at age 12yrs although the age of onset or any further information was not available. Other clinical features include GDD/ID, dysmorphic features, microcephaly, short stature, brain imaging anomalies and congenital heart disease. Some supportive functional data also provided.
