In the present study, we analyzed the &lt;i&gt;CYP1B1&lt;\/i&gt; gene in Mexican patients with PCG and described four novel mutations. &lt;i&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; The sample included 12 nonrelated cases with PCG. Analysis of coding regions of the &lt;i&gt;CYP1B1&lt;\/i&gt; gene was performed through PCR and DNA sequencing analysis from genomic DNA. &lt;i&gt;Results and Discussion:&lt;\/i&gt; Molecular analysis of the &lt;i&gt;CYP1B1&lt;\/i&gt; gene showed the following molecular defects: (1) a novel single-base pair deletion within codon 370 (1454delC) that produces a substitution of leucine instead of proline and a premature stop codon 57 amino acids after the last original amino acid; this family also harbored a novel polymorphic variant of the cytochrome P4501B1 with six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (142C\u2192G; 355G\u2192T; 729G\u2192C; 4326C\u2192G; 4360C\u2192G and 4379C\u2192T); (2) a novel single-base pair deletion within codon 277 (1176delT) that results in a premature stop codon; (3) a novel single-base pair deletion within codon 179 (880delG) that produces a substitution of arginine instead of alanine and a premature stop codon 17 amino acids downstream from the last original amino acid, and (4) a duplication (or insertion) of ten base pairs within codon 404 (1556dupATGCCACCAC) that results in a premature stop codon 26 amino acids after the last original amino acid. We also observed in 2 nonrelated patients a deletion of 13 bp (1410_1422delGAGTGCAGGCAGA) previously reported for other populations. &lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt; We reported four novel mutations and a novel polymorphic variant in the &lt;i&gt;CYP1B1&lt;\/i&gt; gene in PCG in the Mexican population; it has important implications in diagnosis and genetic counseling.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000097902","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,13]],"date-time":"2006-12-13T16:57:41Z","timestamp":1166029061000},"page":"17-23","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Molecular Analysis of the &lt;i&gt;CYP1B1&lt;\/i&gt; Gene: Identification of Novel Truncating Mutations in Patients with Primary Congenital Glaucoma"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"O.M.","family":"Messina-Baas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.M.","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Huerta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Chima-Gal\u00e1n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.H.","family":"Kofman-Alfaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.R.","family":"Rivera-Vega","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"I.","family":"Babay\u00e1n-Mena","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.A.","family":"Cuevas-Covarrubias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000309028"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1074%2Fjbc.271.45.28324"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0014-5793%2895%2901126-Y"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086%2F301764"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fhmg%2F6.4.641"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086%2F301725"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fbjo.87.3.302"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fjmg.40.1.e9"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038%2Fng1403"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073%2Fpnas.93.8.3294"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0022-4731%2886%2990080-4"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fcarcin%2F15.5.997"}],"container-title":["Ophthalmic Research"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/97902","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/97902","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T02:25:51Z","timestamp":1745461551000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000097902"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,11]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,1,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000097902","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0030-3747","1423-0259"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0030-3747"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1423-0259"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,11]]}}}
