Purpose

To describe a new mutation of the trabecular meshwork-inducible glucocorticoid response protein (TIGR) gene in a Japanese patient with familial primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).

Methods

Standard ocular examinations were performed on the 44-year-old patient, his sister, and mother. DNA sequencing was used to identify the mutation. We also developed a DNA diagnostic method for detecting this missense mutation by polymerase chain reaction-induced mutation restriction analysis (PCR-IMRA).

Results

The patient, father, and sister had been diagnosed as having POAG. The patient and his sister had a Thr448Pro mutation (C-->A transition at the nucleotide number 1419) in exon 3. This mutation has not been reported before.

Conclusions

Gene analysis is promising for an early diagnosis among the family members of familial POAG patients and will contribute to early therapy before an occurrence of irreversible visual impairment."xsd:string
