Cataract v0.584 RRAGA Zornitza Stark Marked gene: RRAGA as ready
Cataract v0.584 RRAGA Zornitza Stark Gene: rraga has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Cataract v0.584 RRAGA Zornitza Stark Classified gene: RRAGA as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Cataract v0.584 RRAGA Zornitza Stark Gene: rraga has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Cataract v0.583 RRAGA Zornitza Stark gene: RRAGA was added
gene: RRAGA was added to Cataract. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: RRAGA was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown
Publications for gene: RRAGA were set to 27294265
Phenotypes for gene: RRAGA were set to Cataract, MONDO:0005129, RRAGA-related
Review for gene: RRAGA was set to AMBER
Added comment: PMID 27294265 reports 11 individuals from 3 unrelated families with heterozygous RRAGA variants presenting with autosomal dominant cataracts (juvenile-onset progressive posterior subcapsular cataract in 10 patients from 2 families; congenital nuclear cataract in 1 patient). The missense p.Leu60Arg co‑segregates with disease (LOD 2.975) and activates mTORC1 signalling in lens epithelial cells; the 5′‑UTR c.-16G>A reduces promoter activity (~80%). The missense variant is present in one of the multiplex families and in an independent individual -- appears that the two families are not related and these are independent events.

Nevertheless, two variants only and no direct functional work to link to cataract pathogenesis, hence Amber rating.
