摘要: Abstract The authors studied a four-generation family with autosomal dominant congenital cataracts (ADCCs) using linkage analysis 23 polymorphic phenotypic markers and DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) detected by lens-specific probes. A total of 19 members were the ten affected had embryonal lens opacities. Close was rejected probes encoding β-crystallin, γ-crystallin, major intrinsic protein fiber membrane (MIP) excluding defects these genes as cause cataract in this family. No statistically significant lod scores produced markers. These results support genetic heterogeneity ADCCs.
