UBIAD1 mutation alters a mitochondrial prenyltransferase to cause Schnyder corneal dystrophy.
<h4>Background</h4>Mutations in a novel gene, UBIAD1, were recently found to cause the autosomal dominant eye disease Schnyder corneal dystrophy (SCD). SCD is characterized by an abnormal deposition of cholesterol and phospholipids in the cornea resulting in progressive corneal opacifica...
