Genes affected
CRYGC (HGNC:2410): (crystallin gamma C) This gene encodes a member of the beta/gamma-crystallin family of proteins. Crystallins constitute the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintain the transparency and refractive index of the lens. This gene and several family members are present in a gene cluster on chromosome 2. Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause multiple types of cataract, including Coppock-like cataract and zonular pulverulent cataract, among others. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedliterature onlyOMIMMar 01, 2003- -
Nuclear pulverulent cataract Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 10, 2023This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 5 of the CRYGC protein (p.Thr5Pro). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CRYGC function (PMID: 12601044). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16943). This variant is also known as 225A>C. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital cataract (PMID: 10521291, 33243271). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
