Abstract

Purpose: : To investigate the predominant mutations in CYP1B1 gene in north-indian PCG patients.

Results: : On PCR-RFLP analysis total 20/50 (40%) showed either of these mutation. Ter@223 was found in 18%, R390C in 16% and R368H in 8% cases. On DNA sequencing R390C mutation was found to be R390H and three novel (L24R, F190L and R390D) mutations were revealed. Total 44% cases had CYP1B1 mutations.

Keywords: genetics • anterior chamber • intraocular pressure
