Genes affected
VAX2 (HGNC:12661): (ventral anterior homeobox 2) This gene encodes a homeobox protein and is almost exclusively expressed in the ventral portion of the retina during development. In mouse studies, this gene was found to be required for the correct formation of the optic fissure and other aspects of retinal development. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 30, 2023The c.559G>A (p.E187K) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the VAX2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 559, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 187 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
