Abstract excerpt
From the linkage study of D6S89, we previously reported that hereditary OPCA in Japan is genetically heterogenous. Two pedigrees, P2 and P35, reported in this report, were not linked to D6S89. In order to examine possible correlation between OPCA genotypes and disease phenotypes, we studied clini...
