Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To obtain a global perspective on the distribution and evolution of CYP1B1 mutations in primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) worldwide. METHODS: Five intragenic single-nucleotide polymorphisms in CYP1B1-R48G, A119S, V432L, D449D, and N453S-were used to generate haplotype data from 138 Indian patients with PCG and 132 ethnically matched normal controls, which were then analyzed in conjunction with data from...
