In this study, we identified five novel mutations (c.154 T > C in GJA8, c.1152_1153insG in GJA3, c.1804G > C in BFSP1, c.1532C > T in EPHA2, c.356G > A in HSF4) in five Chinese families with hereditary cataracts, respectively.

Whole genome transcriptome analysis (RNA-Seq) on RNA isolated from wildtype larvae and larvae with eye defects that were putative homozygotes for the foxe3 indel variant found significant dysregulation of genes expressed in the lens and eye whose orthologues are associated with cataracts in human patients, including cryba2a, cryba1l1, mipa and hsf4.
