Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the association of rare predicted loss-of-function (pLoF) variants within age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk loci and AMD sub-phenotypes. DESIGN: Case-control study. PARTICIPANTS: Participants of AREDS, AREDS2, and Michigan Genomics Initiative. METHODS: Whole genome sequencing data were analyzed for rare pLoF variants (frequency <0.1%) in the regions of previously identified 52...
