Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To map a gene responsible for infantile cataract in a large four-generation, non-consanguineous Chinese family. METHODS: Twenty-two family members including 17 cataract patients in the Chinese family were analyzed clinically. All family members were genotyped with 382 microsatellite markers that provide genome-wide coverage every 10 cM. Linkage analysis was performed to identify the chromosomal location...
