Summary of AxenfeldRieger syndrome phenotypes associated with nondeletion mutations in specific genes
Tord A. Hjalt and Elena V. Semina

| Gene | Number of familiesb | Ocular defects | Facial defectsc | Umbilical defects |

| a
Deletions are excluded from the table, as neighbouring genes might also
be affected; thus PAX6 is not listed. b Total number of independently reported families with gene mutations (excludes large deletions/duplications). c Number of families with at least one affected person showing nonocular facial abnormalities. |
