Linkage Analysis of the Genetic Loci for High Myopia on 18p, 12q, and 17q in 51 U.K. Families
23 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To determine the extent to which high myopia in a cohort of 51 U.K. families can be attributed to currently identified genetic loci. METHODS: The families comprised 245 subjects with phenotypic information and DNA available, of whom 170 were classified as affected. Subjects were genotyped for microsatellite markers spanning approximately 40cM regions on 18p (MYP2), 12q (MYP3) and 17q, together with...
