PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to map the disease locus of autosomal dominant cataracts (ADC) in a Chinese family. METHODS: A four-generation family with multiple individuals affected by ADC was investigated. Genomic DNA was collected from 22 family members. A gene-scan at known candidate ADC loci was performed. To achieve fine-mapping we genotyped fourteen STR markers at the critical region of 19q. The...
