Genetic Screening of LCA in Belgium: Predominance of CEP290 and Identification of Potential Modifier Alleles in AHI1 of CEP290-Related Phenotypes

Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA), the most severe inherited retinal dystrophy, is genetically heterogeneous, with 14 genes accounting for 70% of patients. Here, 91 LCA probands underwent LCA chip analysis and subsequent sequencing of 6 genes (CEP290, CRB1, RPE65, GUCY2D, AIPL1and CRX), revealing mut...
