Assessment of TGIF as a candidate gene for myopia.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science - 1 Jan 2008

Pertile Kelly K, Schäche Maria, Islam F M Amirul, Chen Christine Y, Dirani Mohamed, Mitchell Paul, Baird Paul N

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Transforming growth beta-induced factor (TGIF) has been identified as a candidate gene for high myopia through genetic linkage studies and through its role in ocular growth in animal studies. However, the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), based solely on myopia refra...
