Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study was to analyze and molecularly describe the largest group of patients with ABCA4-associated retinal degeneration in Latin America. Pathogenic variants in ABCA4, a member of the ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) transporters superfamily, is one of the most common causes of inherited visual deficiency in humans. Retinal phenotypes associated with genetic defects in ABCA4 are collectively known as...
