Cat-eye syndrome (CES) or Schmid–Fraccaro syndrome is a rare condition caused by an abnormal extra chromosome, i.e. a small supernumerary marker chromosome. [2] This chromosome consists of the entire short arm and a small section of the long arm of chromosome 22 .
The Cat eye syndrome (CES), also termed the Schmid–Fraccaro syndrome, is a severe disorder in which individuals have multiple birth defects such as congenital heart abnormalities, renal malformations, craniofacial anormalies, male genital anomalies, skeleton defects, borderline to moderately severe mental retardation, and cat-like downward ...

29-year-old Caitin Stickels, from Seattle, was born with Schmid-Fraccaro, also known as "Cat Eye Syndrome". The genetic disorder is known to cause an array of issues, the most visible of which ...
Both the familial type and Fish-eye disease are autosomal recessive disorders caused by mutations of the LCAT gene located on chromosome 16q22.1, which is the long (q) arm of chromosome 16 a position 22.1. [7] Both diseases are very rare with ~70 reported cases of familial LCAT deficiency [9] and ~30 cases of fish-eye disease. [10]
Cat eye syndrome critical region protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CECR1 gene. [3] [4] This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of the adenosine deaminase protein family. The encoded protein may act as a growth factor and have adenosine deaminase activity.
Individuals with PKS present prenatally or at birth with multiple birth defects.These defects include: brain atrophy, agenesis of the corpus callosum, polymicrogyria of the brain, and/or spot calcifications in the brain's lateral sulcus; deafness and/or blindness; autonomic nervous system dysfunctions such as anhidrosis, hypohidrosis, and/or episodic spells of hyperventilation interspersed ...
Cat eyes are similar to brass knuckles but in the shape of a cat face, with sharp and pointy ears that act like small daggers to stab or gouge. People slip their fingers through the spaces of the ...
