Novel compound heterozygous mutations in CYP1B1 identified in a Chinese family with developmental glaucoma

Abstract: developmental glaucoma, a subset of glaucoma, is associated with trabeculodysgenesis and/or anterior segment dysgenesis. it is one of the major causes of childhood blindness. understanding its genetic background is important to diagnose, and identify potential therapeutic targets, of this disease. The present study aimed to detect the molecular origin of developmental glaucoma in a chinese pedigree and its association with glaucomatous phenotypes. a three-generation pedigree with developmental glaucoma was ana… Show more

“…The new c.1310C>G variant represents a change from Proline into Arginine at position 437. Interestingly, mutations affecting the same position have been reported before in patients from diverse ethnic background, for example, Proline was mutated into Leucine (p.P437L) in PCG patients from Turkey (Stoilov et al, 1998), Brazil (Stoilov et al, 2002), Pakistan (Rashid et al, 2019), Siberia (Ivanoshchuk et al, 2020) and China as well (Cai et al, 2021). In the same context, Proline was also mutated into Alanine (p.P437A) in a Tunisian patient (Bouyacoub et al, 2014).…”

“…Its increased expression in fetal eyes as compared to adult eyes suggests its significance in the development of childhood glaucoma specifically [190]. Numerous case reports have highlighted the incidence of bilateral PCG in those with homozygous or compound heterozygous CYP1B1 variants in individuals both with and without a family history of the disease, with the most common variants being p.G61E, p.R368H, pE229K, and p.R390H [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36].…”

“…Here in two families PCG049 and PCG062, we identified compound heterozygous mutations in CYP1B1 gene. Previously compound heterozygosity has been reported in developmental glaucoma, [45] and primary congenital glaucoma patients from China [46]. Cai et al, 2021 reported that two heterozygous mutations c.1310C>T (p.P437L) and c.3G>A (p.M1I) are responsible for glaucoma in a Chinese family [45].…”

In another study conducted on 13 Chinese PCG patients, two heterozygous mutations Ala330Phe and Arg390His were detected in a patient and reduced enzymatic activity due to these variants was reported to be the cause of disease [46].…”
