Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To determine the locus of the mutant gene causing autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy (arCRD) in a consanguineous pedigree, to evaluate a candidate gene expressed in retina that maps to this locus, and to estimate the percentage of arCRD cases caused by mutations in this gene. METHODS: DNAs from family members were genotyped for markers covering the entire genome at an average spacing of approximately...
