We have identified 4 pathogenic/likely pathogenic changes and 2 variants of uncertain significance, 3 of which were novel. The identification of disease‐causing variants in the CRYAA, MYH9, RP2, and CLNC1 genes allowed us to establish an accurate genetic diagnosis of inherited cataract and to describe overlapping clinical phenotypes.

Pubertal development and hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis are altered in male mice lacking Mecp2
Abstract Mutations in the MECP2 gene, encoding the epigenetic reader Methyl‐CpG binding protein 2, are the main cause of Rett syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder. Besides severe symptoms such as profound intellectual disability, loss of speech and motor skills, and epilepsy, loss of function of MECP2 has been associated with pubertal ...
