Targeted next generation sequencing and family survey enable correct genetic diagnosis in CRX associated macular dystrophy – a case report

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background We present 3 members of a family with macular dystrophy, originally diagnosed as Stargardt disease, with a significantly variable age at onset, caused by a heterozygous mutation in CRX.

Genetic characterization of Stargardt clinical phenotype in South Indian patients using sanger and targeted sequencing

open access: yesEye and Vision, 2020
Background Stargardt disease 1 (STGD1; MIM 248200) is a monogenic form of autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutation in ABCA4. This gene has a major role in hydrolyzing N-retinylidene-phosphatidylethanolamine to all-trans-retinal and ...
