Abstract excerpt
Cone rod dystrophy 5 (CORD5) is an autosomal dominant retinal disease that primarily affects cone function. The locus has previously been mapped to human chromosome 17p12-p13 between the markers D17S926/D17S849 and D17S945/D17S804. One of our "unaffected" recombinant individual from family 1175 was subsequently found to cross through this interval. Reexamination revealed that he was in fact mildly affected. This...
