A Gene Map of the Best’s Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy Region in Chromosome 11q12–q13.1

Stöhr, Heidi, Marquardt, Andreas, Rivera, Andrea, Cooper, Paul R., Nowak, Norma J., Shows, Thomas B., ...

Best’s vitelliform macular dystrophy is an autosomal dominant disorder of unknown causes. To identify the underlying gene defect the disease locus has been mapped to an ∼1.4-Mb region on...
