A novel compound heterozygous BEST1 gene mutation in two siblings causing autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy.

We have identified and described the phenotype of a novel disease-causing mutation NM_004183.4:c.313C > A, p.(Arg105Ser) in a heterozygous state along with a previously reported mutation NM_004183.4:c.103G > A, p.(Glu35Lys) of the BEST1 gene in two related patients with autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy.
