Cat-Map: putting cataract on the map.

摘要: Lens opacities, or cataract(s), may be inherited as a classic Mendelian disorder usually with early-onset or, more commonly, acquired age multi-factorial complex trait. Many genetic forms of cataract have been described in mice and other animal models. Considerable progress has made mapping identifying the genes mutations responsible for cataract, determinants age-related are beginning to discovered. To provide convenient accurate summary current information focused on increasing complexity we created an online chromosome map reference database humans (Cat-Map).
