The genetically homogeneous group of p.R299X homozygotes showed variable phenotypes (presumably also underlying pathogenetic mechanisms), wherein PCG proper with primary dysgenesis of the trabecular meshwork, and Marfan syndrome-like zonular disease with ectopia lentis and later onset secondary glaucoma are two extremes.

Heterozygous c.1642C >T (p.Arg548*) possibly contributed to MFS-related phenotypes, including ocular manifestations, mitral valve prolapse, and pectus excavatum, but was not cause of MFS.

Homozygous c.3529G>A (p.Val1177Met) was shown to cause autosomal recessive WMS or WM-like syndrome by several approaches, including homozygosity mapping.
We conclude from the very low penetrance and genetic epidemiological analyses that c.1103G>A (p.R368H) is unlikely to be a disease-causing recessive mutation in congenital glaucoma as previously reported.
