Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To identify the genetic basis of Schnyder crystalline corneal dystrophy (SCCD) through screening positional candidate genes and UBIAD1, in which mutations have been associated with SCCD, in affected families. METHODS: The coding region of each of the 16 positional candidate genes for which mutation screening has not been previously reported was screened with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification...
