Background	Pax genes contain paired domains with strong homology to genes in Drosophila which are involved in programming early development. The Pax-2 gene is expressed in primitive cells of the kidney, ureter, eye, ear, and central nervous system. More specifically, in human embryo sections, PAX2 is expressed in the optic vesicle and later in the retina, in the otic vesicle and later in the semicircular canals of the nner ear, and in mesonephros, metanephros, adrenals, spinal cord and hindbrain. PAX2 mutations can be responsible for renal hypoplasia, either isolated or associated with various ophthalmologic manifestations ranging from retinal coloboma to microphthalmia. Lesions in the PAX6 gene account for most cases of aniridia, a congenital malformation of the eye, chiefly characterized by iris hypoplasia, which can cause blindness. PAX6 is involved in other anterior segment malformations besides aniridia, such as Peters’ anomaly, a major error in the embryonic development of the eye with corneal clouding with variable iridolenticulocorneal adhesions.
