Abstract

Phenotypic characteristics associated with mutations in the transforming growth factor beta-induced (TGFBI) gene in two twin sisters suffering from lattice corneal dystrophy are reported. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and 3 new mutations in association with exons 11-12-14 of the TGFBI gene were found. © Società Editrice Universo (SEU).
