Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To explore the frequency and positions of genetic mutations in CYP1B1 and FOXC1 in a Japanese population. STUDY DESIGN: Molecular genetic analysis. METHODS: Genomic DNA was extracted from 31 Japanese patients with childhood glaucoma (CG) from 29 families. We examined the CYP1B, FOXC1, and MYOC genes using Sanger sequencing and whole-exome sequencing (WES). RESULTS: For CYP1B1, we identified 9 families...
