About This Section Entrez Gene summary for PAX6 : This gene encodes paired box gene 6, one of many human homologs of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. In addition to the hallmark feature of this gene family, a conserved paired box domain, the encoded protein also contains a homeo box domain. Both domains are known to bind DNA and function as regulators of gene transcription. This gene is expressed in the developing nervous system, and in developing eyes. Mutations in this gene are known to cause ocular disorders such as aniridia and Peter's anomaly. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, May 2012) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PAX6_HUMAN, P26367 Function : Transcription factor with important functions in the development of the eye, nose, central nervous system andpancreas. Required for the differentiation of pancreatic islet alpha cells (By similarity). Competes with PAX4 in binding to a common element in the glucagon, insulin and somatostatin promoters. Regulates specification of the ventral neuron subtypes by establishing the correct progenitor domains (By similarity). Isoform 5a appears to function as a molecular switch that specifies target genes Gene Wiki entry for PAX6

Defects in PAX6 are the cause of aniridia (AN) [MIM:106210]. A congenital, bilateral, panocular disorder characterized by complete absence of the iris or extreme iris hypoplasia. Aniridia is not just an isolated defect in iris development but it is associated with macular and optic nerve hypoplasia, cataract, corneal changes, nystagmus. Visual acuity is generally low but is unrelated to the degree of iris hypoplasia. Glaucoma is a secondary problem causing additional visual loss over time Defects in PAX6 are a cause of Peters anomaly (PAN) [MIM:604229]. Peters anomaly consists of a central corneal leukoma, absence of the posterior corneal stroma and Descemet membrane, and a variable degree of iris and lenticular attachments to the central aspect of the posterior cornea Defects in PAX6 are a cause of foveal hypoplasia (FOVHYP) [MIM:136520]. Foveal hypoplasia can be isolated or associated with presenile cataract. Inheritance is autosomal dominant Defects in PAX6 are a cause of keratitis hereditary (KERH) [MIM:148190]. An ocular disorder characterized by corneal opacification, recurrent stromal keratitis and vascularization Defects in PAX6 are a cause of coloboma of iris choroid and retina (COI) [MIM:120200]; also known as uveoretinal coloboma. Ocular colobomas are a set of malformations resulting from abnormal morphogenesis of the optic cup and stalk, and the fusion of the fetal fissure (optic fissure). Severe colobomatous malformations may cause as much as 10% of the childhood blindness. The clinical presentation of ocular coloboma is variable. Some individuals may present with minimal defects in the anterior iris leaf without other ocular defects. More complex malformations create a combination of iris, uveoretinal and/or optic nerve defects without or with microphthalmia or even anophthalmia Defects in PAX6 are a cause of coloboma of optic nerve (COLON) [MIM:120430] Defects in PAX6 are a cause of bilateral optic nerve hypoplasia (BONH) [MIM:165550]; also known as bilateral optic nerve aplasia. A congenital anomaly in which the optic disc appears abnormally small. It may be an isolated finding or part of a spectrum of anatomic and functional abnormalities that includes partial or complete agenesis of the septum pellucidum, other midline brain defects, cerebral anomalies, pituitary dysfunction, and structural abnormalities of the pituitary Defects in PAX6 are a cause of aniridia cerebellar ataxia and mental deficiency (ACAMD) [MIM:206700]; also known as Gillespie syndrome. A rare condition consisting of partial rudimentary iris, cerebellar impairment of the ability to perform coordinated voluntary movements, and mental retardation 20/89 diseases for PAX6 (see all 89 ): About MalaCards aniridia peters anomaly morning glory disc anomaly keratitis anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis cataract with late-onset corneal dystrophy rubinstein-taybi syndrome aniridia, cerebellar ataxia, and mental retardation isolated growth hormone deficiency aniridia, cerebellar ataxia and mental deficiency iris hypoplasia cerebellar ataxia with mental retardation growth hormone deficiency maturity-onset diabetes of the young foveal hypoplasia optic nerve hypoplasia cerebellar ataxia glucose intolerance corneal dystrophy coloboma 10 diseases from the University of Copenhagen DISEASES database for PAX6 :Aniridia WAGR syndrome Microphthalmia Coloboma Keratopathy Congenital nystagmus Myopia Glaucoma Nephroblastoma Intellectual disability 10/48 Novoseek disease relationships for PAX6 gene (see all 48 ) About this table
