Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the role of WDR36 and P53 sequence variations in POAG susceptibility. METHODS: The authors performed a case-control genetic association study in 268 unrelated Spanish patients (POAG1) and 380 control subjects matched for sex, age, and ethnicity. WDR36 sequence variations were screened by either direct DNA sequencing or denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography. P53 polymorphisms...
