Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is a genetic eye disorder that leads to abnormal development of retinal blood vessels, resulting in vision impairment. This study aims to identify pathogenic variants by targeted exome sequencing in 9 independent pedigrees with FEVR and characterize the novel pathogenic variants by molecular dynamics simulation. METHODS: Clinical data were collected from 9...
