Abstract excerpt
Mutations of fibrillin-1 (FBN1) have been associated with Marfan syndrome and pleiotropic connective tissue disorders, collectively termed as "type I fibrillinopathy". However, few genotype-phenotype correlations are known in the ocular system. Patients with congenital ectopia lentis (EL) received panel-based next-generation sequencing, complemented with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. In a...
