Loss-of-Function Mutations in the CFH Gene Affecting Alternatively Encoded Factor H-like 1 Protein Cause Dominant Early-Onset Macular Drusen.
Purpose To characterize the molecular mechanism underpinning early-onset macular drusen (EOMD), a phenotypically severe subtype of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), in a subgroup of patients. Design Multicenter case series, in vitro experimentation, and retrospective analysis of previously re...
