Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To perform candidate gene screening for posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD). The initial 3 genes chosen, ID1, BCL2L1, and VSX1, lie within the region on chromosome 20 to which the PPCD gene has been linked, and mutations in VSX1 have previously been identified in patients with PPCD. METHODS: DNA extraction, PCR amplification, and direct sequencing of the VSX1, BCL2L1, and ID1 genes were...
