Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To localize the gene that causes an autosomal recessively inherited vitreoretinal dystrophy that has not been described, to our knowledge, and to analyze a candidate gene mapped to 22q13 (fibulin-1 [FBLN1]). METHODS: Homozygosity mapping with 500 microsatellite markers spread over the...
