Age-related macular degeneration associated polymorphism rs10490924 in ARMS2 results in deficiency of a complement activator
BACKGROUND: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in developed countries. The polymorphism rs10490924 in the ARMS2 gene is highly associated with AMD and linked to an indel mutation (del443ins54), the latter inducing mRNA instability. At present, the function of th...
