Concept ID:
C4310806
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: CATARACT 47; Cataract 47, juvenile, with microcornea; CATARACT, JUVENILE, WITH MICROCORNEA; Cataract, juvenile, with microcornea and glucosuria
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance

Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.
 
Gene (location): SLC16A12 (10q23.31)
