Renal coloboma syndrome (RCS) is characterized by renal anomalies and optic nerve colobomas. PAX2 mutations contribute to RCS. However, approximately half of the patients with RCS have no mutation in PAX2 gene.To investigate the incidence and effects of mutations of PAX2 and 25 candidate genes, pati...
