Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To devise an effective method for detecting mutations in 12 genes (CA4, CRX, IMPDH1, NR2E3, RP9, PRPF3, PRPF8, PRPF31, PRPH2, RHO, RP1, and TOPORS) commonly associated with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP) that account for more than 95% of known mutations. METHODS: We used long-range PCR (LR-PCR) amplification and next-generation sequencing (NGS) performed in a GS Junior 454 benchtop...
