Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To assess the allelic variation of the VMD2 gene in patients with Best disease and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS: Three hundred twenty-one AMD patients, 192 ethnically similar control subjects, 39 unrelated probands with familial Best disease, and 57 unrelated probands with the ophthalmoscopic findings of Best disease but no family history were screened for sequence variations in the...
