Molecular genetics of macular degeneration.

Documenta ophthalmologica. Advances in ophthalmology - 1 May 2001

Abstract excerpt

Macular degeneration is a leading cause of blindness that affects the aged population. The complexity of the molecular basis of macular disease is now beginning to be elucidated with the identification of disease-causing genes. For example, mutations in the ABCR gene, (recently identified in cones as well) which codes for retinal rod-specific ABCR protein is responsible for Stargardt macular dystrophy/fundus...
