Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Introns play an important role in gene regulation and expression. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in introns have the potential to cause disease and alter the genotype-phenotype association. Hence, this study aimed to decipher the association of SNPs in the introns of the crystallin gene in congenital cataracts. Methods: SNPs in the introns of crystallin gene family - CRYAA (rs3788059), CRYAB...
