Early onset X‐linked female limited high myopia in three multigenerational families caused by novel mutations in the ARR3 gene
This study describes the clinical spectrum and genetic background of high myopia caused by mutations in the ARR3 gene. We performed an observational case series of three multigenerational families with high myopia (SER≤−6D), from the departments of Clinical Genetics and Ophthalmology of a tertiary D...

Zusammenfassung: | This study describes the clinical spectrum and genetic background of high myopia caused by mutations in the ARR3 gene. We performed an observational case series of three multigenerational families with high myopia (SER≤−6D), from the departments of Clinical Genetics and Ophthalmology of a tertiary Dutch hospital. Whole‐exome sequencing (WES) with a vision‐related gene panel was performed, followed by a full open exome sequencing. We identified three Caucasian families with high myopia caused by three different pathogenic variants in the ARR3 gene (c.214C>T, p.Arg72*; c.767+1G>A; p.?; c.848delG, p.(Gly283fs)). Myopia was characterized by a high severity ( |
