We consider non-renormalizable 1/M_X interaction terms as a perturbation of the conventional neutrino mass matrix. Particular attention is given to the gravitational interaction with M_X=M_Pl. We find that for the degenerate neutrino mass spectrum, the considered perturbation generates a non-zero U(e3) which is within reach of the high performance neutrino factories and just on the borderline to be of interest for supernova physics. For the hierarchical mass spectrum this effect is small. For 1/M_X interaction terms with M_X about the GUT scale, a detectable U(e3) term is induced for the hierarchical mass spectra also. Numerical estimates are given for all the above mentioned cases and renormalization effects are considered.
