Any congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the COL25A1 gene.
Features include common findings: Ptosis and Duane anomaly.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Eyes | 1 | Ptosis |
Age of onset: at birth.
COL25A1 encodes collagen type XXV alpha 1 chain (654 aa). Inhibits fibrillization of amyloid-beta peptide during the elongation phase. Has also been shown to assemble amyloid fibrils into protease-resistant aggregates. Binds heparin Highest expression in Testis (25.8 TPM) and Adipose Subcutaneous (7.5 TPM).
Fibrosis of extraocular muscles, congenital, 5 is associated with mutations in the COL25A1 gene on chromosome 4.
The COL25A1 protein participates in Collagen type XXV pathway.
COL25A1 is classified as a druggable target (Druggable Genome category) with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for COL25A1 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 2 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for fibrosis of extraocular muscles, congenital, 5.
13 publications have been identified in PubMed for fibrosis of extraocular muscles, congenital, 5. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (38%), Clinical Trial Publication (15%), and Basic Science / Preclinical (15%).
