Baralle-Macken syndrome (BARMACS) is a novel severe neurodevelopmental syndrome with cataracts and variable microcephaly. It has been reported that mutations in COPB1 cause this disease. COPB1 encodes the beta-subunit of coat protein complex 1 (COPI), that is integral in the sorting and retrograde trafficking of proteins and lipids from the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum.
