Additional Information:
Clinical Description OMIM |
According to van Schooneveld et al. (1984), Peters (1906) described 3 brothers with the disorder that bears his name (Peters anomaly; 604229). The features of Peters anomaly, a major error in the embryonic development of the eye, are ... |
Molecular genetics OMIM |
To detect potential rearrangements affecting the disease locus, Lesnik Oberstein et al. (2006) performed genomewide 1-Mb resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization on genomic DNA of 2 brothers and 4 isolated patients who all carried the clinical diagnosis of ... |
Diagnosis GeneReviews | Formal diagnostic criteria for Peters plus syndrome have not been proposed. A clinical diagnosis of Peters plus syndrome is based on the presence of the following: ... Gene SymbolTest MethodMutations DetectedMutation Detection Frequency by Test Method 1Test AvailabilityB3GALTLSequence analysis | Sequence variants 2 27% (9/26) 3 Clinical100% (20/20) 4 Deletion/duplication analysis5Partial- and whole-gene deletions 2/20 61. The ability of the test method used to detect a mutation that is present in the indicated gene2. Examples of mutations detected by sequence analysis may include small intragenic deletions/insertions and missense, nonsense, and splice site mutations.3. As identified by the Laboratory of Diagnostic Genome Analysis, Leiden, The Netherlands. Note: This is a clinically heterogeneous group.4. As identified by Lesnik Oberstein et al [2006]. This cohort is clinically well described.5. Testing that identifies deletions/duplications not readily detectable by sequence analysis of genomic DNA; a variety of methods including quantitative PCR, long-range PCR, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), or targeted chromosomal microarray analysis (gene/segment-specific) may be used. A full chromosomal microarray analysis that detects deletions/duplications across the genome may also include this gene/segment.6. Lesnik Oberstein et al [2006] described two brothers with a ~1.5-Mb interstitial deletion on their maternal allele, including B3GALTL. The paternal allele harbored a pathogenic point mutation.Interpretation of test results. For issues to consider in interpretation of sequence analysis results, click here.When a mutation is found in homozygous form, the parents should be tested in order to exclude the presence of a deleted allele, as a large deletion has been described in two brothers with Peters plus syndrome [Lesnik Oberstein et al 2006].Testing StrategyTo confirm/establish the diagnosis in a proband requires identification of two disease-causing alleles by molecular genetic testing. Sequence analysis should be performed first. If both disease-causing mutations are not identified, deletion/duplication analysis is an appropriate second step.Carrier testing for at-risk relatives requires prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family. Note: Carriers are heterozygotes for an autosomal recessive disorder and are not at risk of developing the disorder. Prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for at-risk pregnancies require prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family.Genetically Related (Allelic) DisordersNo other phenotypes are known to be associated with mutations in B3GALTL.
Clinical Description GeneReviews | Peters plus syndrome is characterized by anterior chamber eye anomalies, disproportionate short stature, variable developmental delay/intellectual disability, characteristic facial features, and cleft lip/palate. Unless otherwise stated, the following description of clinical findings is based on the reports of Maillette de Buy Wenniger-Prick & Hennekam [2002] and Lesnik Oberstein et al [2006].... |
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews | Isolated Peters' anomaly can be inherited in an autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive manner or can occur in simplex cases (i.e., a single occurrence in a family) in which the mode of inheritance is unknown. It has been reported in association with mutations in the following genes: PAX6, CYP1B1, PITX2 (RIEG1), PITX3, FOXE3, and FOXC1.... |
Management GeneReviews | To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with Peters plus syndrome, the following evaluations are recommended:... |

B3GALTL, the β1,3-galactosyltransferase-like gene, contains 15 exons and covers 132 kb. It is expressed in a broad range of human tissues, with tissue-specific regulation. Two transcripts of 4.2 kb and 3.4 kb are produced [Heinonen et al 2003]. Pathologic allelic variants. The mutations reported to date are described below and in Table 2 (see also B3GALTL Database): c.660+1G>A point mutation located in the donor splice site of exon 8, present in one or two copies in all 20 individuals reported by Lesnik Oberstein et al [2006] c.347+5G>A mutation located in intron 5, which changes a highly conserved nucleotide leading to altered splicing p.Tyr366X, a truncating mutation in homozygous form in exon 13 [Aliferis et al 2010].A deletion of one of the alleles, with a mutation on the trans allele [Lesnik Oberstein et al 2006]Table 2.
