The ABCA4 gene has been involved in several forms of inherited macular dystrophy. In order to further characterize the complex genotype-phenotype relationships involving this gene, we have performed a mutation analysis of ABCA4 in 14 Spanish patients comprising eight STGD (Stargardt), four FFM (fund
Autosomal-recessive retinitis pigmentosa (arRP) was recently associated with mutations in a novel gene EYS, spanning over 2 Mb, making it the largest known gene expressed in the human eye. The purpose of this study was to establish the prevalence and nature of EYS mutations in a clinically well-char
Cone dystrophy with supernormal rod response (CDSRR) is considered to be a very rare autosomal recessive retinal disorder. CDSRR is associated with mutations in KCNV2, a gene that encodes a modulatory subunit (Kv8.2) of a voltage-gated potassium channel. In this study, we found that KCNV2 mutations
