Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify potential mutations of retinoschisis 1 (RS1) gene responsible for X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) in two Chinese families. METHODS: The 6 exons and flanking intronic regions were analyzed with PCR and direct sequencing. RESULTS: Two RS1 mutations were identified in the two families, which included 1 frameshift mutation (c.573delG, p.Pro192fs) and 1 missense mutation (c.626G>A, p.Arg209His)....
