Mutation analysis of bigH3 gene in patients with corneal dystrophy
... the CYP1B1 gene in the GLC3A locus have been found in about 50% of PCG patients. No genetic locus has been identified for PCAG, but there is a possible site on chromosome 10. For POAG, more than 10 chromosomal loci have been mapped. But there are only 2 confirmed genes, MYOC and OPTN. Over 60 MYOC m ...
